Japan Tourist Visa Requirements for Filipinos 2020

Latest and updated Japan Tourist Visa Requirements for Filipinos 2020 – procedures in the Philippines. Also available multiple-entry visa for eligible Filipinos who want to visit Japan. This covers how to get a Japan tourist visa in the Philippines this 2020?

Filipinos love to travel and Japan is definitely listed on their bucket list. We definitely cannot miss a Tokyo drift. If you want to apply for a tourist visa in the Philippines to travel Japan, you must prepare the requirements listed below.

Recently, everyone was thrilled of the great news about the 3-year and 1-year multiple entry temporary visitors’ visa the Japanese embassy is now offering to eligible Pinoys. I am sharing the requirements for the multiple entry visa too.

I was lucky to have been given a 5-year Multiple Entry visa for my first time Japan visa application. Read my blog about “How I got My Japan Multiple Entry Visa in One Shot”

Visa application and processing is done via agencies accredited by Japan Embassy in the Philippines – meaning the applicant doesn’t need to go to the embassy anymore except when there is a request such as a personal interview by a consul.

Usually, Filipinos applying for a temporary visit visa in Japan are required to apply through these agencies except those that are required for direct application such as: diplomatic visa, invitation by Japanese government, education and cultural exchange program, scholarship sponsored by Japan, joint venture or member of Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the Philippines, humanitarian related cases and custody cases of Japanese child.

Japan Tourist Visa Requirements for Filipinos and in the Philippines 2020

If you are a Filipino tourist planning to visit and travel the beautiful Land of the Rising Sun or you are visiting a friend or a distant relative, you must prepare the following original documents. Make sure these documents are latest and are valid:

  • Passport (with at least 2 blank pages)
  • Visa application form
  • 4.5cm x 4.5cm photo with white background (to be attached on the application form)
  • PSA Authenticated Birth Certificate
  • PSA Marriage Certificate (if married only)
  • Daily Schedule / Itinerary in Japan (TAIZAI NITTEIHYO) – grab a sample here: Japan Schedule of Stay and Itinerary Sample
  • Photos or documents to prove relationship (if you are visiting a friend only)
  • Latest Bank Certificate / Bank Statement
  • ITR Form 2316 (Income Tax Return) – original and photocopy
  • *Invitation Letter from a Guarantor in Japan with handwritten signature (not needed if you’re on a package tour)
  • *Residence Certificate of your Japanese Guarantor (only if you have a friend in Japan who will support your living expenses in your travel)
  • *Guarantee Letter (only if you have a guarantor/sponsor)
  • *Income Certificate (from City Hall) (SHOTOKU SHOMEISHO) from City Hall, Tax return certificate (NOUZEISHOMEISHO: form2) from Tax office, KAKUTEISHINKOKUSHO HIKAE or Bank Certificate (YOKIN ZANDAKA SHOMEISHO)

Notes:

The last 4 Japan tourist visa requirements are optional and are applicable only if you have a guarantor or sponsor in Japan. To know more about your situation, just phone your local agency. You may also submit additional documents to support your application and visa processing – to prove economic and social ties with the Philippines, medical certificate, wedding invitations etc.

How much is Japan tourist visa fee?

As of now, it’s “gratis” meaning once your visa is approved and granted, it’s free. Yay! However, you may need to pay some fee on the agency where you have processed your application, around P950 or more.

What if your visa was denied? Can you apply again?

If your visa was refused and denied, you can apply again after 6 months.

Japan Tourist Visa Application Procedure:

You must be there at your chosen accredited agency early in the morning around 7am because schedule of acceptance of applications starts only from 8:40 to 9:40 a.m. weekdays. Assuming you have all your documents and requirements prepared and your visa application was filed, you’ll be issued a receipt containing the date when you can verify the status of your application. Should there be additional documents requested, they will also be noted in your receipt. Keep in touch with your agency regarding the status of your visa.

  2. Just want to clarify something about the single entry visa to Japan. I was able to book a cheap ticket for April 03, 2020 so I’m planning to apply for a single entry visa (15 days) around January 2020 since the validity is 3 months.

    I’m thinking of a 1 week stay so 6-7 days. If I got the visa and the expiration date is let’s say April 06 2020. Will I still be able to go because by the time I’m on my 3rd day in Japan my visa would have already expired. Or does it not matter since I was able to enter the country before the visa expired?

    Reply
    • Hi, it is not recommended to book flights unless your visa has been issued. We must always follow the validity of the visa. Immigration authorities are very strict so do not put yourself on situations that are not certain. God bless!

    tanong ko lng po, kasi e-invite ako ng cousin ng step mon ko w/c is nasa japan na sya ngayon, first time ko pong mag apply as tourist visa, nagtatrabaho ako currently dito sa pilipinas (davao) planning to resign if ever ma approve ang visa. minimum earner po ako, kailangan po ba ng ITR yun Ma’am, kasi pagkakaalam ko ITR for above minimum earner. (tama po ba?) any advice po anong gagawin.

    Thank you

    Reply
    • Hi, if you’re not paying taxes, you better submit a cover letter explaining why you have no ITR. It’s allowed naman. I suggest do not resign coz tourist visa ang apply mo, you won’t be allowed to work in Japan with a tourist visa. God bless!

  12. Does how much I earn impact whether ma approve or not? For example, I have a permanent job in a state university so it’s technically considered government employee ako, and my ITR has 260k listed, my show money is 150k. Would how much I earn stated on my ITR matter? Slightly worried kasi my friend thinks 260k might seem low for an annual salary.

      -Invitation Letter from a Guarantor in Japan with handwritten signature (not needed if you’re on a package tour)
      -Residence Certificate of your Japanese Guarantor (only if you have a friend in Japan who will support your living expenses in your travel)

    • Just wanted to share some of my thoughts po.
      If OFW ka, no ITR needed, present your Cert. Of Employment. And regarding sa end contract kana po, how can you defend yourself na hindi ka maghahanap ng work sa Japan and babalik ka ng Pinas? You have to prove that question po. And to make sure ask the embassy. Good luck.

  17. I am already in the process of submitting my lacking requirements and I really want to make sure that eveything will be going smoothly, hence my browsing of blogs in the internet and I’m happy to happen on yours! So I gotta ask, I applied for a Visit-Relative visa in Japan for the first time (first time to go abroad as well) because I plan to visit my Permanent Resident sister for more than a decade (because she married a japanese 10 yrs ago) and a friend of hers(I’m assuming her new boyfriend since she no longer stays with her husband for years now) is my guarantor. I have already obtained all their documents and all I have to submit now is an Affidavit of some sort about proving my relationship with my sister (this is due to the middle name of my father spelt wrong on my NSO. My sister’s NSO got it spelled right). This is what worries me– I initially put “90 days” in my stay. Considering that I am a first-timer (in Japan and abroad), with my sister as my inviter and her friend a guarantor, is there a chance that my application will be denied? Should I lessen my stay to 30 or 15 days instead? Please I need some sort of advise about this ASAP. Thanks!

    Reply
    • As long as your papers are consistent and genuine, you have nothing to worry about. Also explain or mention in the cover letter why you are opting for 90 days. Perhaps, saying you haven’t been with your sister or haven’t seen your sister for many years would touch their hearts. The Japanese embassy is one of the kindest and most considerate. Complete all the required docs and you have nothing to worry. God bless!

      Reply
      • Thank you so much for your encouragement! Possibly such reason would not be so agreeable and convincing in my case since my sister just came to visit here for two months last February-April of this year. I am planning to change my stay to 30 days to be sure though.

  18. Hi Ms. Fehl,

    I’m planning to visit Tokyo alone this April 2017. Thank God for a new job for me this November hoping to gather some funds before the trip. My mom will shoulder most of the expenses like the accommodation, airfare, transportation, etc. My questions are:

    1. I will submit my employment certificate but also present an affidavit of support for the embassy to know that my parents will be supporting my vacation in Japan. Would that be fine?

    2. Perhaps I can open a bank account soon for future use and submit my own bank certificate but also present my parents’ just to make sure that I have enough ties here in the country?

    Reply
    • Yes, if you will use your parent’s funds, you need to provide that. Also you need ITR since you’re employed. Most of all mention on the cover letter about why you don’t have bank account.

        • I dont have the letter on my phone po. But you can explain honestly why you dont pay ITR.
          1 birth cert
          2 passport
          3 bank statement
          4 bank cert
          5 itr (letter explaining on itr)
          6. Photo – required size ng embassy
          7. Certificate of employment on our case the cert of earnings
          8. Travels before stamps on your passport.

          There is a higher chance daw of getting approved if you have traveled before

          I think that’s it 🙂

          Reply
    • You can have Japan tourist visa without an ITR. Just explain the reasons on your cover letter and complete the required documents. Submitting financial docs like bank statement, bank certificates, UITF, Mutual Funds will also help to get approved

  24. Hello,

    Good day!

    I’d like to ask if what type of Visa I should be applying for. I have a biological aunt who is now a resident of Japan (naturalized by marriage to a Japanese national). Should I choose the one with the guarantor since she will offer her place to me as well as all the necessary expenses to be incurred there, or do I have to choose the one without the guarantor since I am not directly and legally related to her?

    (I was legally adopted and my surname was changed into a different one, which is not related, in whole or in part, to my biological aunt). I’d be having a sum of money, maybe about 100k for a 15-day stay as show money.

    Another question. in this case, do I have to choose the distant relatives/friends type of Visa or the Visiting relative one? Thank you and I will be patiently waiting for your response.

  26. My boyfriend is in the US Navy and we have been attempting to meet up a couple of times already but our efforts always end up in vain and plans got cancelled due to travel restrictions to the Philippines, especially coz I live in the Mindanao area which is currently off limits to military personnel. So we just decided to meet up in Japan. Now, the question is that what type of visa should I apply for? And can I declare him as the guarantor of my trip? He isn’t stationed in Japan but they frequented in Japan because that’s where their ship docks. Our purpose is to see each other. We are both single, never married. Would very much appreciate to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you

    • hi EJ, if u opt to apply on tourist visa and declare with relative ,aunt etc . make sure u have NSO document that can justify as proof of your declaration coz japan embassy relies on document even on distant relative they will ask NSO from u, I suggest apply with Letter of Guarantor and Letter of invitation if u are employed ,prepare COE, ITR, Certificate of leave of absence, bank cert, present all originals but bring xerox with u, they will give u back originals, good luck

  27. Hi guys. Very nice article. 🙂
    Can anyone please help me with my concern? I have a US Air Force boyfriend in Okinawa Japan and he is my guarantor and everything. He recently just got his divorce papers finalized this March 2016 but we have been together for 1 year now. I’m thinking would this mess with the Consulate’s head? Another problem is his Statement of Service doesn’t have his commander’s signature so what we did was he wrote an email with his electronic signature and we attached that to the statement of service. I am a first time traveler and a college student, I have no proof of employment which serves as a strong tie in the Philippines. I have been feeling anxious over the last few days. I really wanna see him for only 15 days. Do you guys think I might get approved? We didn’t submit his bank certificate too only his ITR. Would that suffice? Thanks. 🙂
