Temporary Visitor Visa
What is the Temporary Visitor Visa?
1.What is the Temporary Visitor Visa?
While this visa is most commonly known as the tourist visa that isn't the only purpose people use it for. Simply the visa is applicable for short stays of up to 90 days specifically for unpaid activities. Some examples of these activities include; attending a language school short term, visiting family, business meetings or conferences etc. This visa is usually not eligible for extension within the country however, there are a couple of exceptions to this rule such as when coming to Japan in order to get married to a Japanese national.
2.Who needs to apply for a Temporary Visitor Visa?
As a general rule most people will not need to apply in advanced and will instead be issued with a 90 day visa in their passport on arrival to Japan. However, for nationals of countries that do not currently have a visa waiver agreement with Japan there is a need to specifically apply for this visa. This includes people from places like China, Russia, Malaysia and the Philippines.
3. How to apply for the visa?
For most people this is a simple matter of going to your local Japanese embassy and submitting an application alongside simple evidence such as proof of funds needed for the travel and ability to pay for flights to and from Japan. However, depending on your situation the immigration officer may demand to see proof of your income, or proof of link to your home country in order to show your intention to leave before the end of the visa.
