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

[simplykristine08]

^ thanks!

^^ sis, pag 15 days ang binigay na visa, upon release ng visa, dapat ilabas na din sya within the 15 days, tama ba?

^ iba ang invitation sa mag sponsor. invitation letter, simple lang. pag magsponsor, that means na sila ang magsponsor ng trip mo. madaming documents talaga to from the sponsor like Family Registration, Residence Certificate, Income and Tax certificate, etc etc.

hmm.. sabe ng friendship tours magpapasa padin nung family registration and residence certificate with invitation dahil "visit relative visa" pero wala yung mga income tax ng taga JP since yun nga makikitira lang kame pero kame pa din gagastos all through out…

anyone who can help sa affidavit??

[vain_kixie]

Sis sa affidavit of support, just go to any notary public and may draft na sila doon. The one who will financially support the trip will just show his or her id kasi meron mga personal details doon sa affidavit such as address. They will do everything. The one who will support the trip will just sign the affidavit tapos they will stamp it tapos bayad ka na. I paid 100php lang for it.

[simplykristine08]

^^ ah okay. i thought invitation letter lang, solb na.

My parents and two brothers are booked for a Tokyo trip on 15-24apr. Will process their visas via Friendship Tours since it's what my airline colleagues use for JPN visa applications. Im looking into filing their applications by mid-March if it only does take a few days to process. I'm flying to San Francisco on the same day of their departure but am thinking of applying for a JPN visa too once I file theirs. It's been years since I've last visited Tokyo and hope to do so when I get back from the US. I'm now a housewife, too, but I frequently travel x times a year so I submit my husband's docs for support. Never had a problem in any embassy /country. Leaving for BKK this Chinese new year and will start fixing everyone's docs for their visa application when I get back in Feb.

discovery tours tourist visa goes down to 800/ea pero yung visit relative visa walang discount which is 1,500..

ang tagal pa naman magapply dahil kakarenew lang ng tita ko ng passport niya sa JP.. geez 1month pa daw. hopefully a week before our flight lumabas ang visa at positive result! kinakabahan kame. haha!

[theflygirl]

^May I know where Discovery Tours is located? And how long do they process tourist visas?

[JayLan]

^ Discovery is in Makati (along HV dela Costa st).  I submitted mine on a tuesday, I received a call from them that visa was granted on a thurs, so basically 3 days lang (1st day = submission of docs, 2nd day = processing, 3rd day = release)

[glacy_rein]

^wow ang bilis ng 3days!

^^sis normal rate is 1,000 pero kapag madame like kame 6pax sabe 800 each nalang. 5-7working days daw..

can anyone suggest na hotel na walang cancellation fee?? kasi we were thinking na tourist visa nalang din ang i-apply para by end of January makapagpasa na kame for our March31 flight.. tama ba mga sis? do not apply earlier than 60days eh..

kasi kakarenew lang ng passport ng tita ko, 1month ang release kaya most likely 2nd-3rd week ng March ang release ng visa namen if approved or not.. nakakakaba lalo! sa kanila kasi kame tutuloy pero gastos padin namen kaya kailangan ng invitation letter sa kanya and other docs..

[bagaholic_chewy]

^sis, you may book with agoda. Madami naman dun na free cancellation within certain period before travel date.

[glacy_rein]

^thanks sis! kinakabahan kasi kame talaga parepareho din kapag dinelay pa.. eh maluwag naman ngayon at wala talaga kameng balak mag TNT at may bata din kameng kasama. thank you!

so tama sis no? tourist visa then declare nalang na may relative kame dun (did you present documents pa ng brother mo before?) tapos all necessary requirements plus roundtrip tickets and hotel bookings?

[gorgeous_me]

sis, ano bang ilalagay dito?
ID No. issued to you by your government:

N/A lang ba? haha,nakalimutan ko na

Did not present any documents from my brother na. Just the details needed on the form - home address, work, employer, etc.

[glacy_rein]

^ohh okay..

iniisip namen kung ano bang mas mataas ang chance na magka-visa.. may effect ba talaga to??

[simplykristine08]

^ basta sis complete docs, may sponsor or wala, ayos yan. basta hindi lang makita na possibleng mag tTNT ka, wala kang prob.

nadenied na ko once sa pagaapply ko, this was the time na kasal na ako at may anak na. pero kame lang dalawa ng anak ko ang nagapply ng visa without my husband's documents pa, pero complete docs from my parents sa japan. ayun, denied! sobrang nagulat ako. haha, kasi never pa ko nadeny nung single ako. baka akala nila hindi na kame uuwi ng anak ko sa Pinas. LOL

[glacy_rein]

^yup ganun naman talaga kailangan iprove and besides parepareho din tatak sa passport ng siblings ko dahil sama samang umaalis, ako lang naiiba due to UK and DXB visit ko.. pero yung pinsan ko first time traveller at andun ang mom nya pero isasama ko samen and sa parents ko as guarantor..

kapag nag tourism application kame we need a hotel..

example ito kunin namen

useless ang link! yay

anyway nakalagay dian na Book now and pay nothing until March 23, 2014 and free cancellation. Pwede ba na ito yung ilagay namen? or much better na mag book ng Free Cancellation lang??? kasi icacancel namen at dun kame titira sa Tita namen..

[simplykristine08]

^ bakit ayaw ng cousin mo na humingi ng docs sa mom nya? parang mas okay yun. kasi visit nya mom nya. tapos first timer sya.

[glacy_rein]

^hindi kaya maquestion kasi nagoya yung mom niya… eh tokyo baba namen...
