It's March from today. Restrictions on the entry of new foreign nationals into Japan will be greatly eased from March 1. Foreign students who have been waiting to enter Japan for the past two years will finally have a chance to come to Japan. This is a great thing for both international students and Japanese language schools. Even though the restrictions on new arrivals have been eased, there are still rules regarding vaccines and quarantine. In this article, I will briefly introduce the rules. (*This information is current as of March 1 and may be subject to change in the future. Please check the website for details.)

(1) People who have completed their third vaccination (people entering the country from designated countries or regions)
People who have completed three doses of vaccination with the types of vaccines designated by Japan are subject to a seven-day voluntary waiting period. However, if you take a PCR test on the third day of the waiting period and it is confirmed negative, you will be exempted from the voluntary waiting period.

(2) People who have completed their third vaccination (people entering Japan from countries and regions other than those designated)
Those who have completed three vaccinations with the types of vaccines designated by Japan are exempted from the waiting list.

(3) People who have not completed their third vaccination (people entering from designated countries/regions)
You wait for three days in accommodations provided by the quarantine office. If the PCR test is negative on the third day, you will be allowed to leave the accommodation and will not be required to stay at home.

(4) People who have not completed the third vaccination (people entering the country from outside of the designated countries and regions)
You will be placed on voluntary standby for 7 days. However, if you take a PCR test on the third day of the waiting period and it is confirmed negative, you will be exempted from the voluntary waiting period.

If you are on voluntary standby, you can use public transportation within 24 hours of your arrival. In addition, waiting at the quarantine station can be done by public transportation if the PCR test is negative on the third day.
I think it has been a difficult two years for the students who were planning to study in Japan. We are looking forward to seeing you all soon.

It's March from today. Japan, restrictions on new entry of foreigners will be greatly relaxed from March 1. For the past two years, international students who have been waiting to enter the country have finally had the opportunity to come to Japan.

In this article, I will briefly introduce the rules. (*This information is current as of March 1 and is subject to change in the future.) For details, please check the website. ）
