How much is a Japan visa in 2026?

This answer is written for Vietnamese passport holders.

Vietnamese travellers must apply for a Japanese tourist visa through travel agencies designated by the Japanese Embassy; you can't apply directly yourself.

  • Main documents: passport; application form and photo; day-by-day itinerary; flight and hotel bookings; proof of employment; proof of funds (savings, statements).
  • Fees (from 1 July 2026): JPY 15,000 single entry (about VND 2.6 million); JPY 30,000 multiple entry; agency service fees are extra.
  • Processing: usually about 1 working week after the agency submits.
  • Apply at least 1 month before travel; earlier for cherry blossom and autumn leaves season.
  • Travellers on tours with designated agencies may receive an eVISA with a 15-day stay.

Note: the list of designated agencies is published on the website of the Embassy of Japan in Vietnam; only use agencies on that list.
