Japanese visa policy

Legal analysis: This policy relaxed the visa application conditions for college students, from 75 to 1243 universities. Undergraduate and graduate students from universities directly under the Ministry of Education of China, that is to say, almost all undergraduate/graduate students from public or private universities and graduates who have graduated within three years can apply, without proof of economy and assets. From the date of application, those who have been to Japan twice or more with a personal tourist visa in the last three years can now apply for a visa with unlimited destinations for three years without submitting proof of assets, which means that as long as they have been to Japan twice before, they can now apply for a three-year visa directly.

Legal basis: Article 9 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Exit and Entry Administration. China citizens shall apply for passports or other travel documents when leaving or entering the country. China citizens who want to go to other countries or regions also need to obtain visas or other entry permits. However, unless the China government has signed visa exemption agreements with other governments or the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs provide otherwise. China citizens who leave or enter the country as seafarers and work on foreign ships shall apply for a seaman's certificate according to law.
