After 30 months, Japan announces it will lift tourist entry restrictions

Tourists will no longer have travel restrictions in Japan from October 11. A return to normality after more than two years.

Japan will lift its entry restrictions for tourists put in place more than two years ago to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic, Digital Minister Taro Kono announced on Twitter on Thursday.

Japan had closed its borders in 2020 during the Covid-19 crisis. 30 months later, tourists once again have total freedom to enter the territory.

The country had begun a gradual reopening in 2022 with visas for workers and students in March, tourists who must be accompanied by guides in June or even those who booked in a selection of travel agencies in September.

Therefore, from October 11, it will be possible to freely enter and travel in Japan as before the pandemic.
