The Japanese government has decided to extend the immigration control measures in place for each country to the end of next month for the purpose of preventing the spread of corona19, the Nihon Keizai newspaper reported.

The newspaper also said that measures such as suspending the visas already issued or suspending the visa waiver system for short-term residents will continue.

As a result, measures to suspend the '90-day visa waiver' for Koreans have continued, resulting in de facto bans on foreigners attempting to enter Japan from Korea.

The Japanese government has also decided to add nationals from 18 countries, including Algeria, Cuba, and Iraq, to ​​be banned from the first day of the following month.

With this action, Japan's entry into Japan has increased to 129 countries and regions.
