The Romanian Foreign Ministry hails the decision by the Japanese authorities to extend, after January 1 2016, the temporary visa waiver for Romanian citizens travelling to Japan, for a stay of up to 90 days.

Unlike the previous time, the visa exemption will be enforced as of January 1, 2016, for Romanian holders of both simple and temporary passports. The decision by the Japanese authorities is the result of an intense, years long dialogue, held at bilateral and trilateral level (the European Commission, Romania, Japan).

The Romanian Foreign Ministry recommends to the Romanian citizens willing to travel to Japan in the following period of time, to access the Romanian Foreign Ministry’s website to get detailed information on the conditions that should be met to apply for the visa waiver.
