Can you get a Japanese visa online?
Australians wishing to travel to Japan for tourism for a short-term period can apply for a visa online and receive an electronic visa (e-Visa) through the Japan eVisa system. This system simplifies the process for eligible passport holders, reducing the need for in-person visits to a consulate general or diplomatic mission. Note that only certain visa types are available online, so check eligibility on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website before applying.
As entry requirements for Japan may change over time, so make sure to verify visa requirements with the Japanese Embassy in Australia, your local Japanese consulate or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan.
