What you can settle without going

  • You can have the Certificate of Eligibility applied for in Japan by your sponsor.
  • You can check the office hours: most consular counters close at midday.
  • You can check whether you need a visa at all, because most U.S. passport holders do not for stays under 90 days.

    • Other places in the same district

  • Virginia Beach, 208 miles from its consulate
  • Alexandria, 9 miles from its consulate
  • Arlington, 4 miles from its consulate

    • Before booking the trip, look at what can be done online: it is more than most people expect.

    This is an independent guide. It is not the Japanese government, and it does not process applications or book appointments. Details change: check anything that decides a trip against the office itself.
