The government is continuing discussions with China over the immigration restrictions for the new coronavirus, with the intention of agreeing to resume traffic for business people within the month.

The government is gradually easing the immigration restrictions for the new coronavirus, such as resuming the traffic of business people to and from Singapore and South Korea.



The government is also continuing discussions with China, hoping to reach an agreement within the month to resume the traffic of long-term residents, including short-term business travelers and expatriates.



According to the people concerned, the method of virus testing at the time of entry is different between Japan and China, so Foreign Minister Motegi said on the 20th that he was discussing how to handle the test results. We are proceeding with discussions from the perspective of creating a system that is compatible with preventing the spread of infection. "



The government wants to resume traffic as soon as possible and lead to economic recovery, as the number of people visiting Japan from China for business purposes was about 370,000 last year, the highest number by country.
