Japanese visas: The Japanese government may lift the restrictions on multiple-entry visas for China tourists.

20 15/04/03 our team compiled the article "Japanese government or lifting multiple-entry visa restrictions for China tourists". According to Japan's Yonhap News Agency, in order to increase the number of tourists visiting Japan from emerging markets in Southeast Asia, the Japanese government basically decided to discuss expanding the scope of visa-free or multiple-entry visas on the 20th. Among them, the multiple-entry visas issued to China tourists are currently limited to accommodation in Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima or Okinawa. In order to encourage the number of tourists from China to rebound, the Japanese government will also study lifting this restriction.

In order to achieve the goal of increasing the number of visitors to Japan to 25 million by 2020, the Japanese government believes that it is necessary to further attract tourists from countries with rapid economic growth. Akihiro Ota, Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, will explain this at the recent government conference on industrial competitiveness.

It is estimated that Thailand (260,000 visitors to Japan in 20 12) and Malaysia (130,000) will be the discussion objects of visa exemption, and the Philippines (90,000) and Vietnam (60,000) will be the discussion objects of multiple-entry visas. As this move has also brought about concerns about illegal employment, the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other relevant departments will coordinate before the end of this summer.

According to the statistics of the Tourism Office, the number of visitors to Japan in 20 12 was 8.37 million. According to the Japanese government's estimation, if the goal of 25 million tourists can be achieved, the total consumption of visitors to Japan will increase from the current annual 1 trillion yen to 4 trillion yen.
