Australia to Japan visa requirements
Visa-free up to 90 days for tourism, business, transit, or visits. Passport must be valid for the trip; Visit Japan Web is optional for online immigration/customs arrival procedures. Australian ordinary passport holders can enter Japan without a visa for short-term stays such as tourism, business, transit, and visits for up to 90 days. MOFA lists Australia under Japan's reciprocal visa-exemption arrangements, and the period granted on landing is 90 days for countries without a shorter listed limit. The Embassy of Japan in Australia confirms the passport must remain valid during the stay and when departing Japan; Japan does not require six months of remaining validity. Tourists may not undertake any paid or unpaid work, and in-country status changes from tourist to work status are not generally allowed. Visit Japan Web is optional but useful for submitting immigration and customs declarations before arrival; paper disembarkation cards remain available at the airport.
