Travel Advice

Japan

Most visits to Japan are trouble-free but travellers should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate international terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners.

Possession of small amounts of drugs will lead to detention and prosecution. Possession of large amounts earns long sentences of rigorous imprisonment and very heavy fines.

The typhoon season in Japan normally runs from June to October.

The country is also in a major earthquake zone with frequent quakes of varying sizes.
