 Traveling to Japan for on-site participation in ISFA22:

If you live outside of Japan and are considering traveling to Japan for
on-site participation in ISFA22, the following link shows the latest
requirements in the border control for the entry to Japan.

Japanese Border Measures by Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of
Japan:
https://www.mhlw.go.jp/stf/covid-19/bordercontrol.html

Here are additional remarks from us. Please note the border measure
can be subject to a sudden change and make sure you check the latest
information.

1. If you decide to travel to Japan for the conference, please let us
 know the following information.
 We have to apply the Certificate of Registration to
 ERFS(Entrants,Returnees Follow-up System).
 You need this certification to entre Japan and to apply the visa
 (if you need a visa) .
* Your passport date(Please send a copy of the page in your passport that
 has your photo,name etc. on it.)
* Your accommodation(Hotel) details in Japan (Hotel name, Address,
 Tel No., Check-in/out date etc.).
 Please note that you need to book a hotel first,before the registration
 to the ERFS.

2. Please check the visa requirement for the entry to Japan.
 As of May 9, 2022, all foreign nationals traveling to Japan need to
 apply for a visa. Visa exemption for short-term stay is currently not
 applied.

 Before booking your hotel or air ticket, we would suggest first
 consulting with the Japanese Embassy in your country to see what
 you'll need for visa application. In many countries, the ERFS
 registration is required before the visa application.

3. If you are not from "the designated countries" and are vaccinated
 three times (booster vaccinated),
 then you do not have to self-isolate in a hotel after arrival at Japan
 (in the regulation as of April 25). Please check more detailed
 conditions in the link above.

 In principle we have to ask you to check all the requirements and
 prepare for them in your own responsibility.
 We are, however, happy to help as much as we can.
 If you need more information, please contact us.
