Tip: Japan Tourist Visa Application(very helpful-LINK inside) THREAD 2

[BAISANAN]

congrats sis, i just want to re-apply target ko sana makamultiple, ano kaya ang mas weigh yung
mag solo apply ulit or makisabay sa family ng sis ko na magto- tour din. ?

[feebers]

Just want to share my experience in getting a Japan Tourist Visa. I find Rajah Travel the most experienced in visa assistance. In fact in their Japan visa help desk, there were few Japanese yet Filipino speaking employees. They were very helpful in reviewing your documents and would suggest other documents if they find that hindi papasa the rest of your documents.
 From the time of submission of complete documents, I got our visa in 3 days lang.

What I think helped for us in getting ME 5 year visa are the following:
1.  Bank Certification - lakihan nyo na if pwede. Just to show that you can afford airfare and accommodation especially if you are going to Tokyo as its common knowledge na expensive to travel there. The amount should be more than sa magagastos nyo.
2.  Travel stamps in your passport - if you have travelled in other countries, it is already a plus factor.

From what I heard, Japan is now more lenient than before because they are encouraging more tourists in preparation for the Olympics.

Is there anyone here who applied for the first time and got multiple entry?
How long the duration of visa they normally give? Many THanks..

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ not sure if counted, but we applied for our toddler. First-time nya, ME for 5 years, 30days per stay.

[Lanesky]

What are the additional requiremets to get 5 yrs ME? Many Thanks..

[BAISANAN]

pag nagpa renew ng passport maililipat ba ang visa ?

[BAISANAN]

navisahan ako sa friendship tours, ang goal ko is maka ME ok kaya na lumipat ng travel agency like reli tours?

[shygirlme]

^try mo discovery sis. 2x kami nag friendship hindi ME binigay samin. Malaki naman pera namin sa bank. Kaya next time mag discovery naman kami.

[blackgreen]

Matry nga yan na lilipat ng agency. Kami rin kasi buong savings, wedding fund and honeymoon fund namin nasa bank balance na pinakita namin pero SE lang din or baka dahil 1st time namin? Pero meron iba rin 1st time pero ME.

[BAISANAN]

nag backread narin ako sa thread pansin ko kasi pag sa friendship walang yata o bihira lang ang
naka kuha ng ME..the rest sa ibang agency na....thanks sa reply sis.

[shygirlme]

^^sis kami din nung 1st time malaki pa fund kasi kasama pa wedding fund don pero single entry lang binigay 

[blackgreen]

^oo nga sis eh. Alam ko parehas tayong before the wedding nagapply kaya halos intact pa wedding fund. tee hee!..

Next time ttry ko sa discovery mas makakatipid pa.

[shygirlme]

^naku sis very disappointed husband ko nung nakita nya yung visa namin. Nag expect na kasi sya ME. Planning to go back to Japan next year na hindi pa talaga final nung nag apply kami uli. Kaya hassle again to apply. Sa 2nd apply namin Marriage Cert lang naman magastos. Ayun nalang pinasa namin tsaka bank cert and COE ng husband ko.

[blackgreen]

^sayang din kasi application fee. Ah so pag 2nd time na pwedeng wala na rin ITR? Bakit COE na sinubmit niyo?

[shygirlme]

^ay walang ITR that time husband ko since Ofw sya kaya Coe nalang. Ako naman housewife. Yes sis. Mahal pa naman sa friendship.

[BAISANAN]
