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

[ayami]

Nag apply din kami sa Discovery tours ni bf last monday, got our visas kanina. 5-7 days din sabi nila saming processing time, pero on the 4th day, nakuha na namin yung passports namin. They gave me 5 years multiple entry. Si bf naman single lang, siguro kase first time pa lang  mag apply for japan visa. Pero happy pa din!

Nice! So next week na siguro yung samin Tuesday kami nag apply e

Visa approved na rin kapamilya ko.  Mother ko, auntie at 2 sisters. Ako guarantor  nila. Thurs initially nagpunta sis ko sa Discovery to submit their application, pero di tinanngap kasi need to change their forms and other requirement. Friday bumalik sis ko, nag ok naman. Thurs may call Discovery ready na raw passport at send nila by courier. 8:30am courier arrives kanina lang. So time to finalize the tour bookings and itinerary

[sdee]

thanks sis vhanya. may amount ba na dapat show money?

[vhanya]

Just make sure the money you have in the bank is sufficient to fund your trip

[sdee]

thanks sis will be applying through reli tours in megamall if i have itr naman no need na po for coe sis?

[sdee]

sorry daming tanong sis hehe thanks for answering

[vhanya]

Yes no need. Same lang naman yun eh although ok rin if you submit both. Sa Friendship kasi we never gave our ITR.

[sdee]

talaga sis vhanya? we don't have us visa pa kasi hahah di ba you have na? what documents did you submit sis?

[pink_saphire]

sisses, question lang po, plan namin magpunta ng japan by end of november, wait pa kasi namin ang dad ko. kasama ko ang parents ko papunta don pero married na ako, at full time mom. so kailangn ko ng COE ng hubby ko? since diko naman i dedeclare na parents ko ang mag soshoulder ng expenses ko sa japan. wala parin kameng plane tcket, kasi nga dipa sure sa visa, and tutuloy lang kame sa friend nung dad ko, mas madali ba kung magpapa request nalang kame ng invitation letter sa friend nung dad ko, or kahit wala na ok na yun? thank in advance

[vhanya]

^^ we submitted lang application form, photo, bank cert, Coe and itinerary. We have US, Schengen Visa and are frequent travelers to Japan

[sdee]

^ same din kaya sis if sa amin kasi si hubby china visa and korean visa and taiwan palang ang meron.

[vhanya]

I think so. Check with your agency if ok lang yan din isubmit mo. Maluwag na Japan ngayon when it comes to tourist visas

[nageinna]

anyone knows the requirements for foreign passport holders naman? my inlaws kasi are chinese passport holders but residents na sila here sa ph. anyone here naka try na mag apply using a foreign passport?

[xtine]

^You should ask sis any selected agency to process your visa in case of non PH passport holders.  All tourist visa applicants go through agencies.

sa show money sis, 46k lang yung nasa bank account ko nun nag-aaply ako nun october 29

october 31 I received a text na na ready for pick-up na may passport

Hi mga sis, I backread all 2014 posts. From what I read, maluwag na mag-bigay ng visa. Sana mabilis lang din sa amin ma-approve.

Concern ko yun bank certificate for the show money. May RT tickets na kami Manila-Tokyo for our honeymoon in November 2015 (na-book ko sa CebuPac piso fare promo). Naka-book na din kami ng hotel through booking.com.

Kasal kasi namin ng October 2015 so okay lang na before October mag-apply na kami ng visa para mas malaki pa laman ng bank account namin for show money. Pwede kaya na around 70k lang kami each ni h2b sa bank account namin? Yun bank certificate for savings account lang? Paano kung meron akong UITF pwede rin ba gamitin yun?

6d/5n kami sa Tokyo and based on my draft itinerary 80k magagastos namin dun including hotel, food and tours. Initial plan is to use credit card for all reservations (hotel, tours and entrance fees).

First-time namin mag-travel ng magkasama na out of the country and yun nagrerequire ng visa kaya kinakabahan ako.  Thanks sisses for your inputs.

Edited (additional question):
Hindi ba magiging problem kung married na ako by the time na pupunta na kami Japan? Kasi kung before October kami aapply visa, single pa tapos pagdating ng November married na. Ang gamitin ko bang name (if ever ma-grant) eh yun single name ko pa? Thanks ulit

[shygirlme]

^nice kami din ni fiance japan honeymoon feb 2015 nga lang. Ang worry ko lang is joint bank account kami e. Ok lang naman siguro yun ipakita? Makakapag apply pa kami ng visa by end January since end January pa sya dadating from abroad.

[blackgreen]

^balitaan mo kami sis ha kung paano process sa inyo. Wala pa kami joint account balak namin after the wedding na lang para yun married name ko na gagamitin pag-apply.
