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

[luvko23]

we just applied sa discovery for my daughter last Monday. Yung BDO bank cert was not in A4 but still inaccept pa rin. Wala naman sila comment it has to be A4. I think mga original documents na kailangan isubmit hindi kailangan naka A4. Mga photocopy and application form has to be A4. Better to call na rin to be sure.

Kailangan ba talaga may ITR o okay lang wala basta may COE & Bank Cert? Me & my husband both working freenlance kasi e.

[snowkeis]

Kailangan ba ulit mag apply ng new visa for the new passport - kung yung previous expired passport meron pang valid multiple entry visa to Japan?

Same question mga sis. TIA

[esor]

^no need na sis snowkeis, kasi visa is still valid 

[kookai88]

summer 888 thanks!

anyway, got our visa today. single entry! ang bilis lang pala ng approval ng visa. siguro dapat talaga lahat ng requirements kumpleto ka. sa discovery tour kami nag-apply last week. ngayon approve na kami. God is good talaga. 

[luvko23]

I will reply sis based on my experience. Yes need ng ITR. However, I read on another forum meron din mga freelancer walang ITR they submitted a letter explaining bakit walang ITR and na-approve sila.

Got our visa today!  Applied last Tuesday, 3 days lang sa Discovery Tours.
multiple sakin, single entry naman sa sis ko.
COE lang yung kulang nya, sayang nga sana multiple din sya. 

[kookai88]

congrats esor !
kelan kayo punta ng japan? 

[missgoodvibe]

kaka-pass ko lang sa Reli kahapon sa SM southmall.

Will just wait for their text. Sana ma-approve na this week! *fingers crossed*

[esor]

^sis kookai88
thanks Sept pa target namin.
mas maganda yung dating visa, may cover pa , yung ngayon wala na 

[missgoodvibe]

Nag-text na kagad yung Reli sakin kahapon (July 7) na pwede ko na ipick-up yung passport ko.

Pick-up ko na sya later. Sana approved [textspeak!] visa!

Nag-pass ako July 4. Holiday nung July 6. Bilis ma-process! 2 business days

[damonsgirl]

^ mabilis talaga sa Reli sis. Ako sunday nag pasa then tuesday after office ko tumawag na sila to say na pwede ko na pick-upin yung visas namin ni hubby. 3x na ako kumuha ng visa sa kanila. On the third application, multiple entry visa na for 5 years ang na issue sakin.

[minnie99]

Sisses, kailangan ba ng personal appearance sa reli? What if applying as a group, kailangan ba lahat present, or kahit isang person lang?

Lastly, are they open even during weekends?

Thanks.

[damonsgirl]

Yes sis. Kelangan personal.

[shygirlme]

^original pareho ipapasa sis.

[summer888]

@janesjane kami ng husband ko we only submitted 1 orig copy of our marriage certificate. better call directly the agency where you plan to submit your application for other information and clarifications para hindi masayang ang pag punta mo dun.

[minnie99]

Kamusta naman lately? Yung sister ko, she applied with my dad (retired) and my mother attached our ME visas. Single entry lang nakuha nila.

[travelling_daisy]

Hi! Question lang on the application form... does the date of application needs to be the exact date you submit the docs to the agency? Planning to submit ours this Sunday at Reli's din sana. Do I reflect date this Sunday or the following business day na since application will be forwarded naman to the embassy on business day (Monday) na? Or the date does not matter naman? Thanks mga sis!       

[damonsgirl]

^I always leave that blank sis para sila nalang mag fill up kung ano tama sa tingin nila

[travelling_daisy]

^Thanks, sis. Actually, I have one form printed with date and one na blank yung date... I'll ask them na lang siguro when we submit. I have the form filled up na kasi, ayoko ng handwritten yung entries... he he
