I have a friend who just landed in Japan March 16, 2004, she said at immigration they required each family member to have a QR code. So they ended up having to fill up the paper form. But at custom, only 1 QR code is asked for the entirely family. Very puzzled.
I'm not sure in detail, how your friend go through the immigration, but below is what i assume might be the issue: Yes, each member need to have their own QR code when going through the immigration checkpoint. A common misunderstanding about the Visit Japan Web for family members is that, most assume that they can share the code between each other since everyone registered into 1 account. Below are a few points to note: 1. Even if family member registered into 1 account, each member will still have their own individual QR code. 2. When going through the immigration checkpoint, only 1 person at a time for family members, unless with small children. 3. Before proceeding to the immigration counter, each family member should have their own QR code with them. Either a screenshot of the QR code or they can log into the same account as per the main user. And display their own QR code with their own name displayed. And during custom.checkpoint, for paper form case, Yes, only 1 form for entire family. Actually it apply to all other countries too, only 1 form is required when traveling together with family members. Hope it clear some of your queries...
So just to be absolutely clear … do i need a wifi connection at all during this entire process if i take a photo beforehand? Or do i need to log onto the site at some point during this process?
If you take photo beforehand, you don't need a wifi connection during entire immigration and custom process. I go through the whole checkpoints just using the screenshot for my Feb trip.
I leave in one month to Japan. Can I fill it out right now or do I have to wait a specific amount of time?(I have my entire itinerary ready: flight, hotels, etc.)
Hi, Yes, you can fill it now, as long you have your flight and accommodation information. And it's good to double check again, few days before your flight that all the information is good on the Visit Japan Web.
Yes, you still can add them as family member. The only issue is privacy as you might need to share the log in information with them, if they need to log in. (if not, just screen-shot the Qr code for them)
Hi, for family members, you can add them into your phone. Then you can screenshot their individual QR code when going through immigration individually. (Remember, each member have their own unique QR code under their own name) Another way is to share your log in information with them and they will individually log in and access their own QR code under their name.
Actually you can do this weeks before your flight. I don't recommend on the same day as you don't know what might happen at the last minutes or too many things happen during your flight, you don't want to be anxious filling up the information or form.
Once you register your itinerary, scroll down to the immigration clearance and custom declaration tab and select it, then complete the steps. Once done, you will get the qr code.
Hi, is the line for scanning immigration QR code the same as the line for people who fill out immigration forms manually? How long does it take from landing to leaving the airport?
Hi, for scanning the immigration QR code, it will be a different line from whom who prefer to submit by forms. From landing to leaving, it depend on your arrival gate, as some gate the distance can be quite far. It will take probably 30-45 minutes with estimate waiting time for luggage collection.
Thank you. I land at HND at 8 pm, do you think I can get to shinagawa before midnight? The keikyu line google maps shows like 10 mins so. I think after customs and such i should def make it?
Hi, i would like to ask, if my parents a retiree, what occupation category should I choose to fill the visitjapan web registration form? Unemployed or others?
Hi, and Yes, you still have to get this QR code and the procedures still remain un-change. But you still have the option to submit the paper form instead of the QR code if you prefer.
Point of Eembarkation : What i most tip in the cube? I have a flight from Düsseldorf, Germany, with stop in Istanbul and from there direktly to tokiyo. Düsseldorf or Istanbul ?
Hi, when traveling with family members, everyone need their own QR quote, and only each member is allow to go through custom one by one, not together, unless with children. Once every members are registered, you can select individual name from the QR code.
Hi, no. After you have register every member information, each member will get their own QR code. Under the QR code page, there is an drop-down menu beside the name, click on that and select each respective member name in order to show the correct QR code.
Hello, I believe it is the immigration clearance and custom declaration QR code, the new QR code combine the 2 into "1 QR code" that can be use for both clearing the immigration and custom declaration checkpoint.
@@redfingernails Yes, for biometric passport, but don't worry, if don't have the biometric, you can still use the manned gate with the staff, just inform the staff.
Thanks for the video, i have friends that tried to use the QR code, but was very confused as to where and when to use it, or where to go. This is the first video with directions on where to go. I’ll be visiting in a few months, hopefully I’ll have better luck than my friends. 🤞
Is it fine to fill " unemployed " in the occupation section (visit japan web)??? Im worried that it might cause a problem as im currently not working , thank you
@@Nubnuggs Actually the benefits is only one, you don't have to show your passport to the staff, just show the QR code. But one downside is that, whether that duty-free stores or shops have the systems to scan the QR code. If not, you still need to show your passport.
Bro by mistake I fill on additional member details my details it will not effect anything and 2 thing my travel plan is change because I travel to other country before but I update in Japan web is it fine bro I am really worried need your reply asap

Thank you! Glad this was helpful for you!
Question, if I have a non family member flying with me can I still add them as a family member or probably not?
Yes, you still can add them as family member.
The only issue is privacy as you might need to share the log in information with them, if they need to log in. (if not, just screen-shot the Qr code for them)
ur info was really helpful greetings to u from morocco
Happy to help, glad it was helpful for you!
Hi, can i do several people on my phone or do they need to do their own

Hi if you have an evisa to japan how does it wrok? Thank You.
Hello, if you have a visa or evisa, you still need to submit the visit japan web.
Can we do this before going on the plane? Same day or night before
Actually you can do this weeks before your flight.
I don't recommend on the same day as you don't know what might happen at the last minutes or too many things happen during your flight, you don't want to be anxious filling up the information or form.
@simplifytravel thank u! Done filling it up
Do they check/search carry on bags upon arrival?
To my experience, they seldom check. But they will occasional search on random travellers if needed.
I created an account and added my passport and my itinerary. But I dont see the option to create a qe code. Why is that?
Once you register your itinerary, scroll down to the immigration clearance and custom declaration tab and select it, then complete the steps. Once done, you will get the qr code.

how early can i complete this. Do i have to do it day of or like a week early?
Hi, you can submit it a week early too.
Hello! Does the QR code change or refresh? Or is it singular enough to use screenshot alone? Also thanks for the helpful video.
Hello! The QR code will not change or refresh. You can screenshot it.
And thank you, glad it is helpful!

Yes, definitely got the time. The last train from Haneda Terminal 1 is around 2355.
Hi, i would like to ask, if my parents a retiree, what occupation category should I choose to fill the visitjapan web registration form? Unemployed or others?
Hi, you can choose the unemployed. I had choose it for my parents too for the last trip to Japan.
Hi
Just a question,
Do I still have to get this QR code or the procedures have changed ?
As I will be going next month.
Hi, and Yes, you still have to get this QR code and the procedures still remain un-change.
But you still have the option to submit the paper form instead of the QR code if you prefer.

For retiree, should I check others or unemployed in the occupation section?
Hi, you can check the unemployed. I had checked for my parents too, and it is fine.
I tried it , without wifi it is useless, the wifi at Narita also useless
Yes, wifi is needed if not it can't work. On the safe side, screenshot the QR code for the next trip.
Thanks for the video, i have friends that tried to use the QR code, but was very confused as to where and when to use it, or where to go. This is the first video with directions on where to go. I’ll be visiting in a few months, hopefully I’ll have better luck than my friends. 🤞
Definitely will be lucky. Hope you have a great and smooth travel in your upcoming trip.
Is it fine to fill " unemployed " in the occupation section (visit japan web)??? Im worried that it might cause a problem as im currently not working , thank you
Hi, don't worry it will not cause any problem.
@@simplifytravel ahh thank you
Oh no my passport validity less than 6 monthly
If im not wrong, your passport must be valid for the length of your stay in Japan.
My passport photo is not registered pn the web? Will it cause any problem on my flight?
It won't cause much problem, it just that you won't be able to use their "Tax-free QR Code" function.
@@simplifytravel thank you so much ❤️
@@simplifytravelWould you be able to provide additional detail on the “Tax-Free QR Code” benefits?
@@Nubnuggs Actually the benefits is only one, you don't have to show your passport to the staff, just show the QR code. But one downside is that, whether that duty-free stores or shops have the systems to scan the QR code. If not, you still need to show your passport.
Awesome.
