55.05 Visit Japan Web
Why it matters
Visit Japan Web is the Digital Agency’s official portal for pre-registering immigration, customs, and tax-free shopping details before flying to Japan. Completing the forms generates QR codes that shorten arrival processing and unlock the blue and green fast-track lanes referenced in 41.01 Japan Life and the airport timeline in 41.02 Arrival and First Months.
Key workflows
- Account creation and traveller profiles: Supports individual or family accounts with multilingual guidance so you can preload passport data, flight information, and duty-free eligibility.
- Immigration & customs forms: Stores arrival/departure information, customs declarations, and quarantine data that border officers scan directly from the generated QR codes.
- Tax-free shopping pass: Issues the blue QR used in airport duty-free stores once immigration is cleared, reducing paperwork for high-value purchases.
Usage notes
- Save screenshots or printouts of the QR codes in case airport Wi-Fi is congested during arrival.
- Reuse the same traveller profile for return trips; update flight numbers and accommodation details before each visit.
- Pair the digital queueing benefit with the document checklist in the first-week arrival workflow.
Backlinks
- Supports arrival planning guidance in arrival preparation.
- Feeds into immigration day workflows recorded in arrival-day tasks.
