Japan to Lebanon visa requirements

Japanese ordinary passport holders can enter Lebanon with a free visa on arrival, valid for a one-month tourist stay and extendable up to three months. No advance visa or eVisa is needed. A Japan ordinary passport holder traveling to Lebanon for tourism qualifies for a free single-entry visa on arrival (VOA), issued at Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport and other ports of entry. Lebanon is not part of the Schengen area, so the EU 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. The Lebanese General Security places Japan in the category of nationalities granted a cost-free entry visa on arrival valid for one month, extendable to a total of three months at a local General Security office. There is no fee for this single-entry one-month visa. Standard conditions apply: a passport valid for at least six months with two blank pages, a confirmed onward or return ticket, and a Lebanese address/contact details. Critically, Lebanon bars entry to anyone whose passport shows Israeli stamps, visas, or seals, or who is found to have traveled to Israel. Travelers should also note that Lebanon is subject to elevated travel advisories from Japan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other governments due to regional security conditions, and rules can change at short notice, so confirming with the Lebanese Embassy in Japan before departure is strongly advised.
