Visa & Entry

Finnish citizens enter Japan visa-free for up to 90 days for tourism and business. No advance application required. Your passport must be valid for the duration of your stay. At immigration, you will be fingerprinted and photographed. You receive a "temporary visitor" landing permission stamp.

You must complete a Visit Japan Web registration before arrival, including customs and immigration declaration forms. The QR code generated speeds up processing at the airport. Carry proof of a return or onward ticket and your hotel booking. A 90-day extension is possible at an immigration bureau in Japan, but approval is not guaranteed.

Finnair flies Helsinki to Tokyo Narita and Osaka Kansai direct, with Helsinki serving as the shortest connection between Western Europe and Japan. Japan uses the yen (JPY). Cash is still widely needed at smaller restaurants and shops. 7-Eleven and Japan Post ATMs accept foreign cards. IC cards (Suica, Pasmo) work across trains, buses, and convenience stores. No vaccinations required.
