International travelers must wear masks, disinfect their hands, and avoid confined, enclosed spaces, crowded places, and close-contact settings. International travelers must also buy Japan travel medical insurance.

  • Travelers must register in the Visit Japan Web before travel.
  • Travelers must accept that any infractions may lead to them being unable to continue in the tours.
  • To help identify and to limit close contact with multiple people, there must be a document of tour participant activities. Precautions should be made to reduce the number of close contacts keeping fixed seating arrangements in restaurants and during travel.
