Japan's latest immigration policy?

according to the latest regulations, foreigners can enter Japan under certain conditions from March 1, 221. Specific measures include: the isolation time can be reduced when conditions are met, and it is expected to gradually expand the scope of objects and reduce entry restrictions.

Due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, since 22, Japan has closed its doors to the outside world and implemented emergency hemostasis measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic. However, since March 1, 221, Japan has gradually relaxed the entry restrictions for foreigners and lifted some special measures against the epidemic. According to the latest regulations, foreigners can enter Japan if they meet the following conditions: 1. People with special visa types such as work visa, long-term resident visa, study visa (with preparatory course) and family reunion visa. 2. Have the nucleic acid test results that have been tested in designated institutions in Japan and obtained negative certificates. 3. Independent isolation was carried out for 14 days after entry, and PCR detection was carried out on the third and seventh days, and the test results were negative. Among them, it is worth mentioning that the Japanese government also emphasized that under certain conditions, the isolation time of entry personnel may be shortened, and the scope of objects will be gradually expanded and entry restrictions will be reduced. This shows that the Japanese government is actively encouraging and promoting the recovery of economic activities and personnel flow.

do I need to carry out nucleic acid testing at my own expense when entering Japan? Yes, you need to have a negative nucleic acid test certificate to enter Japan. Specifically, foreigners carry out nucleic acid testing in China and enter Japan after obtaining a negative test certificate. Because this part of the cost belongs to the personal burden before entering Japan, it is necessary to carry out nucleic acid testing at your own expense.

Japan's latest entry-exit policy points out clear conditions and procedures for foreigners to enter Japan. For qualified personnel, the isolation time can be reduced under certain regulations, and the scope of objects can be gradually expanded and the entry restrictions can be reduced. It should be noted that it is necessary to obtain a negative nucleic acid test certificate in advance before entering the country, and conduct the test at your own expense to ensure the smooth progress of the plan.
