- Visa free entry<\/a> has resumed for the 68 countries it previously applied to. Passengers from everywhere else will need a visa<\/a>.<\/li>\n
- Passengers will need either proof of vaccination<\/a> (3 doses) or proof of negative test<\/a> taken within 72 hours before departure.<\/li>\n
- There’s no testing on arrival and no quarantine, regardless of vaccination status. And there’s no more checking of which blue\/yellow\/red countries you’re coming from – that whole matrix has been scrapped.<\/li>\n
- Passengers are still encouraged to use the MySOS app<\/a> and register required docs, for fast track entry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The full passenger rules can be found here.<\/a><\/p>\n
Crew rules.<\/h4>\n
- \n
- Just like for pax, you need either proof of vaccination or proof of negative test taken within 72 hours before departure. If you can’t provide either of these, they’ll let you in but you’ll have to quarantine in the hotel.<\/li>\n
- If you have a passport from one of the 68 visa exempt countries, that’s all you need. If not, you’ll get issued a crew shore pass<\/a> on arrival which allows you to stay in Japan for up to 7 days without holding a visa.<\/li>\n
- Crew don’t need to use the MySOS app. Instead, they should submit a \u201cplan of stay\u201d form<\/a> on arrival.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The basic crew rules can be found here<\/a>, which we fleshed out with help from local handling agent Aeroworks. Contact them at fltops@aeroworks.jp<\/a> for further info.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Airport Spy?<\/strong>\u00a0Well, you write a quick little postcard with \u201cwhat happened\u201d when you went to some airport somewhere. Then you, and others (that\u2019s the magic), can refer to your notes for future flights to the same place.\u00a0Try it here<\/a>\u00a0if you haven\u2019t already.<\/p>\n
- Crew don’t need to use the MySOS app. Instead, they should submit a \u201cplan of stay\u201d form<\/a> on arrival.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- Passengers will need either proof of vaccination<\/a> (3 doses) or proof of negative test<\/a> taken within 72 hours before departure.<\/li>\n
