Information on Re-Entry Permit Application

July 27, 2026
The Immigration Services Agency of Japan has released information regarding the re-entry permit application. This is guidance for foreign residents who plan to temporarily leave Japan and return.
Foreign residents who wish to temporarily leave and re-enter Japan need a 'Re-Entry Permit'. This permit is required to simplify entry and exit procedures and must be applied for before departure. If you qualify for a special re-entry permit, you do not need a regular re-entry permit. There are two types of permits: single-entry and multiple-entry. Applications must be submitted to the local immigration office and require a fee. Please check official sources for detailed information on procedures and required documents.
