Tip: Japan Tourist Visa Application(very helpful-LINK inside)

[chimponzi]

100-150K laman ng bank statement enough na po ba yan para makapasa sa visa?

mga ganyan din sa akin sis. nabawasan ko pa nga kasi may monthly amort ako sa housing loan.  nakakuha naman ako ng visa at nakabalik na din ako from japan..  pero meron ako airline ticket and hotel booking na pinasa nung nag-apply kami for visa.

Hi Sisses,

Would you know kung magrereleas ng new set of requirements ang JP embassy for visa applications?

Also, I'm planning to go to JP (4 days only) in August and I will shoulder all my expenses.  When I checked the requirements, Letter of Invitation and Guarantor are not applicable in my case.  Aside from Bank Statement, are there any other supporting documents that could help to get a visa?

TIA!

 multiple entry ang binigay lang pala and not visa exemption. But sa mga agencies ,may mga no-sponsorship na nakakakuha naman ng tourist visa,just submit what is in the checklists.Sure ito dahil nakapunta cousin ko with co-employees without any invitation from anyone in Japan.

[vhanya]

^ganun naman talaga diba? you apply for a tourist visa? you don't need a sponsor if you can pay for your trip. that's what we did everytime we go to japan. just submit the needed docs.

[BAISANAN]

Is there any charge sa travel agency aside sa processing fee?

[vhanya]

dapat wala. friendship tours in dusit only charged me 1200 for my tourist visa, 2-3 business days processing

[onefineapril]

I checked FriendshipManila website and so far among the accredited agencies, sila ang may pinaka-konting requirements for JP VISA application and I think their site is updated.  They have note regarding the latest news about JP Visa.

1.  Passport
2.  Photo
3.  Application Form
4.  Birth Certificate from NSO

and additional letter lang requesting for multiple entry visa.
I don't have itinerary nor tickets yet, magpapa-approve muna ako ng leave sa work and as for the itinerary, wala pa kong idea talaga... bahala na yung friend ko na pupuntahan ko dun 

I'm planning to submit my application one of these days and dadagdagan ko na lang siguro ng Bank Statement.

By the way, sa during departure, marami pa bang tanong ang immigration officers natin?  Ideally dapat hindi na kasi may VISA na nga e hehe...

[vhanya]

^you don't need plane tickets for the visa application. We're submitting our docs din for the multiple entry visa =)

[onefineapril]

^Sis, aside from the docs that I mentioned, meron pa kayong idagdag for submission?

[greyzie]

^bank statement, land titles, itr, certificate of employment. Any proof that you have the means to travel.

As for the immigration, always bring your company id na lang.

Good news na rin yun multiple entry, d na sapalaran pag me mga promos.

[lakwatsa]

naisip ko lang. kasing higpit din ba ng korea visa app ang japan? sa korea kasi "no work, no visa" dun. so yun mga gusto mong isabit sa trip kahit pa sponsored mo naman e walang pag asa magkavisa. sa japan visa app ba ganun din?
