The government is gradually easing immigration restrictions in response to the spread of the new coronavirus, allowing foreigners with medium- to long-term status of residence to enter the country, as well as South Korea and Singapore. We are resuming traffic to and from business people.



Under these circumstances, the government has further relaxed immigration restrictions, and when Japanese people traveling abroad or foreigners with a status of residence enter Japan, they will have to wait for 14 days under certain conditions. We have begun to consider deciding to exempt this month.



As specific conditions, it is being considered to submit an "activity plan" that describes the places to visit and not to use public transportation for 14 days after entering Japan, and it is expected that the number of immigrants will be limited for the time being. is.



In addition, regarding the "infectious disease risk information" issued to Japanese people, the government issued a "level 3" "travel suspension recommendation" for 159 countries and regions in some countries and regions this month. We are considering reducing the level to "level 2" and "refraining from traveling unnecessarily and urgently" and excluding it from being denied entry.



The government will continue to relax immigration restrictions in line with the expansion of the virus inspection system at airports, activate traffic to and from each country, and lead to economic recovery.
