14 VISA-FREE Countries You Can Visit With Japan Visa or PR [2024 Edition]

Published: March 22, 2024 2 Comments

VISA-FREE Countries You Can Visit with Japan Visa

Japan visa is growing in popularity, partly due to the Japanese passport. Because the Japanese passport has become such a strong passport in recent years, Japan’s visa is gaining trust as a strong visa. 

Japan visa may not be as strong as a US or Canada visa, but it’s still powerful enough. As of 2024, there are 14 VISA-FREE countries you can visit with Japan visa or residence card.

In this article, you will learn about these 14 countries, who can enter these countries and what visas are permitted. 

If you have come to this article and do not have a Japan visa, I urge you to check out the Japan Visa Guide to learn about various Japanese visas for tourists, their eligibility and requirements. 

Table of Contents

What are the visa-free countries for japan visa or residence card holders.

The VISA-FREE countries you can visit with Japan visa or residence card in 2024 are:

  • Philippines

This list changes often. Please bookmark this article so you can refer to it when you’re planning your trip. 

Which Japan visas are eligible?

Japan Visa Sample

The following Japan visas can be used.

  • Tourist visa (tourist, business, visitor)
  • Student visa (student, training, cultural, etc.)
  • Working visa (work, artist, journalist, etc.)
  • Professional visa (highly skilled, start-up, etc.)
  • Spouse/child/dependent/long-term resident visas
  • Residence card

Refer to each country below to see which Japanese visas are accepted. Most countries require the visa to be multiple-entry and some require the visa to have been used once to enter Japan. 

Are Japan eVisas accepted?

At this moment, Japan eVisas are not accepted. Immigration officers in most countries aren’t aware of the fact that Japan also issues eVisas. Even if they are, they may not know how to verify the authenticity of those eVisas. 

Proof of Japan eVisa is the Visa Issuance Notice which doesn’t include much information. Japanese immigration also does not accept Japan eVisa prints instead they require you to show a real-time version of the eVisa using the Japan eVisa app on your phone. I don’t think any other immigration has any idea about this app or the real-time version. 

If you qualify for a regular sticker visa and also for an eVisa, get the regular sticker visa, especially if you plan to travel to any of the below countries.

Moreover, regular Japanese sticker visas for many nationalities are multiple-entry and valid for 5 years. As a visa traveler, you want long-term visas. 

Without further ado, let’s look at each of these countries in detail.

Hi Khan Ali! For Mexico, the residence permit must be a “permanent” residence permit. Short or long-term residence will not be accepted, unfortunately.

Visa Free Countries for Japanese Passport

Once your application receives approval, you’ll receive an email confirming your visa’s approval status. This email will also include a document that you should print out and carry along with you when you’re about to cross the border. Although your visa will be registered in the online system, it’s worth noting that some border officials might request a physical copy of the permit. This makes it vital to have the printed copy in your possession while you’re traveling.

Contact the visa application center in your home country and secure a meeting slot, bearing in mind that getting an appointment with the embassy or consulate might require several months.
  • Gather Required Documents. To ensure a successful application, gather all the necessary documents for your visa. This includes your passport, completed application form, health insurance details, and more. Some documents may need to be verified with an apostille stamp or certified by a foreign office.
  • Submission and Interview. Proceed to submit your application and attend the visa interview if required. Biometric information might also be part of the submission process. Ensure you’ve appropriately translated your documents as per embassy or consulate requirements and verified them with an apostille stamp, if applicable. Following submission, it will take several weeks for a decision to be made regarding your visa application.

Please take note that if you possess a valid multi-entry visa, there’s no need to apply for a new visa.

What Documents Are Required for Japanese Citizens to Apply for a Visa?

Japanese citizens planning to visit countries that necessitate a visa application prior to travel must provide specific documents. While document requirements can vary depending on the destination, most countries typically ask for the following:

  • A valid Japanese passport (along with a photocopy). Some countries stipulate that the passport should remain valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date from their country.
  • A duly completed visa application form.
  • Passport-sized photographs taken within the last six months.
  • Comprehensive travel health insurance covering your entire intended stay.
  • Proof of payment for the visa fee.
  • A detailed travel itinerary outlining your planned destinations.
  • Letter of invitation (if applicable).
  • Confirmed return flight ticket.
  • Evidence of pre-booked accommodation.
  • Adequate proof of funds to sustain your visit.
  • Civil status documents (such as marriage certificates or birth certificates).

Important Note: Be aware that having a previous criminal history could result in your visa application being rejected.

Visa free access for Japan

As a Japan passport holder, you are permitted to travel visa-free to 178 countries and territories. This data is correct as of September 2024.

In order to travel visa-free, you will need a valid passport, often with at least six months until expiry. Additionally, you may need travel insurance, as required by your destination country.

Within these countries, there is often a separate section in airports where you can submit your Visa on Arrival. You will receive your visa on arrival (VOA) after entering the country that issued the visa.

Acquiring an eVisa follows the same process as applying for a traditional visa. The main difference with an eVisa is that you don’t need to visit a visa application centre. You can submit your application online, including making any payments relating to the visa.

Once the relevant authorities approve your application, you will receive a confirmation email regarding your visa status, along with a document that you must print and bring with you when crossing the border.

You will need a valid visa to enter the 178 countries with a Japan passport.

These days, out of the nearly 200 countries in the world, Japanese citizens can get access to an incredible 172 using an eVisa, VoA or no visa at all.

Of the other countries that require an embassy visit, most are in some less accessible parts of Africa. In fact, travel to every country in Oceania, Europe, or South America falls within one of the easier categories. Except Cuba, the whole of North America is also open to citizens from Japan on the same visa-free basis. No wonder Japan ranks so high in the Henley Passport Index!

Visa-free travel is a great way for the Japanese to explore new countries

Traveling is one of the best ways to explore new places and meet new people but what makes it more stressful is the process of applying for a visa. Application for a travel authorization may be both time-consuming and expensive.

Fortunately, several countries offer visa-free travel for holders of only a passport. It means that you can enter the country without the necessity to apply for a visa.

As well as being more convenient, visa-free travel can be a great way to reduce stress and save money. So if you're looking to explore new places without spending a fortune, consider taking advantage of visa-free travel opportunities.

Applying for a Japanese passport 

High passport ranking and many visa-free destinations make a Japanese passport an attractive option for making traveling easier.

If you want to join the Japanese passport holders, you must first become a citizen of this country. The process of naturalization is long and demanding.

Remember that Japanese citizens are not allowed to have dual citizenship, so you will have to renounce your previous citizenship first. 

You may apply for a passport when you finally become a Japanese national. The application includes a few stages:

  • Choosing the type of passport you want (there are different passport types depending on the purpose).
  • Collecting the necessary documents (a resident card, ID card, passport photo, etc.)
  • Filling in the application form.
  • Waiting about ten days for a passport.

What are the benefits of traveling to visa-free countries?

Traveling can be an incredible experience, exposing Japanese passport holders to new cultures and interesting people with their interesting customs. If you're lucky enough to travel to a visa-free country, it can also be a stress-less experience.

With a passport, you can travel without worrying about filling out many paper forms. For some destinations with no visa-free politics, you may take advantage of applying for an electronic visa or on-arrival visa.

In all cases, you save money for unlimited visits to embassies or consuls and visa fees. Thanks to it, you can stretch your travel budget further and enjoy your trip even more.

So whether you're looking for an uncomplicated travel experience, consider traveling to a visa-free country for your next vacation.

How to make sure that your destination is a visa-free country?

If you intend to travel abroad, it's essential to make sure that your country's destination is visa-free. You may need a visa to be let into the country depending on your nationality and travel purpose.

The best way to find out if you need a travel permit is to check online with the embassy or consulate of the country you're visiting.

Sometimes, you can apply for an online visa, which is a very comfortable and entirely online alternative to a traditional visa. In the case of a paper visa, make sure you reserve enough time for the application process.

What to do if your destination is not a visa-free country?

When it turns out that your travel destination doesn't have a visa-free entry, you should pay more attention to the preparation process. You will need more time because applying for a visa takes a while.

The most convenient visa type for travelers is an eVisa, which may be obtained online. For a paper visa, you must go to an embassy of the chosen country but first, check a list of the eVisa-eligible countries.

Tips for traveling to non-visa-free countries

As a visa application requires time, please ensure you have enough of it to deal with all the paperwork. Before applying, check the validity of your passport or apply for it when needed.

When arriving in your destination country, have all the necessary documents with you and be ready for border control. Keep them safe for the entire stay.

Is it important to research the different visa requirements of each country before traveling?

Every destination has its entry requirements. It is crucial to check them before arriving in the country to enter it without any complications. At worst, we may not be allowed into a country or deported.

Governments of different countries give foreign travelers the possibility of visa-free traveling. It is a significant simplification, but each time before gathering necessary documents for our travel, we should check carefully what entry rules are applied in the place we head to.
