When you arrive in Japan, you will go through immigration and customs procedures at the airport. The process is usually smooth, but it’s important to know what to expect in advance.
After getting off the plane, follow the signs for Immigration. You will need to present your passport and complete the required procedures. In many airports, fingerprints and a photo will be taken.
Next, collect your checked baggage and proceed to Customs. You may need to submit a customs declaration form, which can often be completed online before your arrival.
Make sure you have the following ready
・Your passport
・Completed arrival and customs information (if required)
・Your return ticket (in some cases)
・Accommodation details
💡The entire process usually takes around 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the airport and time of arrival.
