You can bring instant noodles, biscuits and pickled mustard tuber to Japan, but you can't bring raw meat, sausages, jerky and other meat products and fresh fruits.

Instructions for entering Japan:

1. Before entering Japan, ask the flight attendant for the "Alien Entry Record" card on the flight. Be sure to read it carefully, fill in the positive and negative related items in traditional block letters or English, and pay special attention to correctly fill in the "purpose of Watari Wataru" (which should be consistent with the entry visa items) and "scheduled duration of stay in Japan" (the duration of stay in Japan cannot exceed the validity period of the visa).

When going through the customs formalities, please give the completed declaration form and passport to the customs officer. The declaration form can be obtained from the flight attendants on the plane, or collected and filled in the Lida Hall, and should be truthfully declared.
