Visa to Japan

Most nationalities visiting Japan are issued a 90-day visitor visa upon arrival in Japan that cannot be extended within Japan (first list). Obviously, 90 days is more than enough for most tourist purposes. Some lucky countries are issued a 90-day visitor visa upon arrival that can be extended for another 90 days within Japan (second list). Other countries are issued 15-day visitor visas on arrival (third list).
