		<description>Too many Nigerians came here on tourist visa&#039;s and never left, so now the Japanese government is very strict.  The police will constantly check your ID on the street.  Not worth your time IMHO.</description>

		<description>Thanks for watching Olonade. Getting a tourist visa to a foreign country depends on your nationality and the rules of your country. Perhaps the fastest way to find out is to call your nearest Japan embassy. Best of luck to you.</description>

		<description>From collected anecdotes and some personal experience I can give the following general advise:

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you have anything less than a university degree for what you want to get a visa for, expect it to be difficult. 10 years of experience in your field are a sufficient substitute though.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you come to Japan on a 90 day tourist visa, keep in mind that the visa application process will take up a huge chunk of that time. Expect it to take two months or more.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you&#039;re staying on a tourist visa, make sure to be well funded. Having a debit card for an overseas account and/or a credit card with a high limit is good.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you&#039;re staying on a tourist visa, you&#039;re a tourist with the intention of seeing beautiful nature, culture etc. Since you are not earning any money in Japan, you&#039;re well funded and self-sufficient (see above).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you&#039;re required to state your intentions to enter Japan or why you&#039;re in Japan, &lt;b&gt;read the previous point again&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The application papers are all bilingual, the staff may not be. At least some simple Japanese communication ability helps.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You are allowed to stay in Japan for six months out of a year on a tourist visa without a problem, consecutively or not. Any day over requires a &lt;em&gt;proper&lt;/em&gt; visa. Unless you make a really good case with the immigration officers and are very lucky.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;People are actually being turned away at the airport, it happens. You have to do a lot wrong for that though.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

And last but not least:
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Getting married to somebody with permanent resident status in Japan has its very own set of problems and consumes a lot more time, but gets you a visa really quickly; and so much more... ;-)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

<li>If you come to Japan on a 90 day tourist visa, keep in mind that the visa application process will take up a huge chunk of that time. Expect it to take two months or more.</li>
<li>If you&#8217;re staying on a tourist visa, make sure to be well funded. Having a debit card for an overseas account and/or a credit card with a high limit is good.</li>
<li>If you&#8217;re staying on a tourist visa, you&#8217;re a tourist with the intention of seeing beautiful nature, culture etc. Since you are not earning any money in Japan, you&#8217;re well funded and self-sufficient (see above).</li>
<li>If you&#8217;re required to state your intentions to enter Japan or why you&#8217;re in Japan, <b>read the previous point again</b>.</li>
<li>The application papers are all bilingual, the staff may not be. At least some simple Japanese communication ability helps.</li>
<li>You are allowed to stay in Japan for six months out of a year on a tourist visa without a problem, consecutively or not. Any day over requires a <em>proper</em> visa. Unless you make a really good case with the immigration officers and are very lucky.</li>
<li>People are actually being turned away at the airport, it happens. You have to do a lot wrong for that though.</li>
</ul>
<p>And last but not least:</p>
<ul>
<li>Getting married to somebody with permanent resident status in Japan has its very own set of problems and consumes a lot more time, but gets you a visa really quickly; and so much more&#8230; ;-)</li>
</ul>
