Seville to Tokyo (SVQ–HND) — Airlines, Schedules & Connections

Spanish passport holders enter Japan visa-free for up to 90 days for tourism or business. Your passport must be valid for the duration of your stay. At immigration, you get a "temporary visitor" status stamp. Japan takes fingerprints and a photo of all foreign visitors over 16 at the airport. The process is quick and automated at most terminals.

All travelers must complete the Visit Japan Web registration at vjw.digital.go.jp before arrival. It handles immigration, customs, and quarantine declarations in one form. Fill it out before your flight and have the QR codes ready on your phone.

The 90-day stay cannot be extended for tourism purposes. If you need more time, you must leave Japan and re-enter. A common route is a short trip to South Korea or Taiwan. Japan does not have a hard rule against back-to-back tourist entries, but immigration officers may question you if you appear to be living in Japan on rolling tourist stamps. For work, study, or stays beyond 90 days, apply for the appropriate visa at the Japanese embassy in Madrid before departure.

Keikyu Line to Shinagawa (13 min, ¥310) and Tokyo Monorail to Hamamatsucho (18 min, ¥500) both connect to JR and Tokyo Metro networks. Terminal 3 (international) has direct access to both rail lines.Limousine buses serve Shinjuku, Shibuya, and major hotels (¥1,100, 40–60 min depending on traffic). Taxis to central Tokyo run ¥3,500–5,500. Haneda's proximity to Tokyo means ground transport is faster and cheaper than from Narita in virtually all cases.

Humid subtropical climate. Summers (June–September) are hot and humid (28–35°C) with a rainy season in June and typhoons possible July through October. Typhoons occasionally divert or cancel flights, but direct hits on Tokyo are less frequent than farther south. Humidity peaks in July and August.

Winters are cold and dry (2–10°C) with occasional light snow. Even minor snowfall disrupts Tokyo's ground operations since the city is not equipped for winter road treatment. Spring (April) is pleasant but windy. Fall (October–November) offers the best flying conditions.
