Japan visa for Nepalese citizens
Visa required
🇳🇵 Nepalese passport → 🇯🇵 Japan: yes — a visa arranged in advance.
How it works
You'll need a visa arranged in advance through the embassy or consulate (or an authorised visa centre): application form, passport photos, fee, and often proof of funds, accommodation and onward travel. Start early — processing can take weeks.
Heads-up: Japan commonly asks for proof of onward travel (airline check-in; immigration occasionally).
