Honorary consuls in this state

An honorary consul is a local contact point, not a counter: the post issues no passports and no visas and cannot notarise a document. For that you still go to the consulate general.

    What you can settle without going

  • You can check whether you need a visa at all, because most U.S. passport holders do not for stays under 90 days.
  • You can fill in Visit Japan Web before you fly, which covers immigration and customs.
  • You can apply for the eVISA online if your nationality is not visa-exempt.

    • If you only need a certificate or a registration, check whether it can travel by mail before you plan the drive.
