Japan COVID-19 border controls to end on 29 April

Initially, the government had planned to end the border measures on May 8, coinciding with the reclassification of COVID-19 as a common infectious disease, similar to seasonal influenza. However, recent developments have confirmed that the measures will be lifted a week earlier, just in time for the anticipated surge of travellers during the Golden Week holidays.

Currently, all entrants are required to present certification of at least three COVID-19 vaccination doses or a negative coronavirus test taken within 72 hours of departure. Starting from April 29th, these requirements will no longer be necessary.

This decision marks a significant step towards the resumption of full international travel and the revitalisation of the Japan tourism industry.

We would like to wish all of our guests a safe and enjoyable journey travelling to or from Japan. We hope that the relaxing of border control measures will ultimately result in a stress-free start or end to your holiday.
