How To Apply For Japan Single-Entry Visa In Singapore

ABBEY: Our next destination is Japan so we checked the required documents and have them ready before our embassy appointment. We also booked our flights and hotels. But as soon as we check the appointment system, all slots are full (for Visa(Tourism)). 

We called their hotline but that move made is all the more nervous as we were not given any option but to wait for an opening or move our flight. What we did is send them a mail. Lo and behold they replied and gave us a link (under Visa(All other visa applications and services)) to book a slot. 

On the day of appointment, I got my queue number and wait for it to be called. The consul reviewed our documents and referred us for Multiple-Entry Visa instead of Single and got a feedback that I’m well prepared. Of course. I also got a comment that the place where we are about to stay looks nice. 

I was asked to come back after five days. We got approved for multiple entry and visa is free. The time for document review and visa releasing is shorter than me waiting for my queue number for twenty minutes. The service is fast and efficient as long as you come with complete documentation and in order.

WILL: Do you think that Japanese Embassy has a straight forward required documents for your visa application? Well YES! They do have but Abbey witnessed that a huge number of applicants were lacking of 1 or 2 papers to submit to Japanese Consul. 

This is the link for the Documents required for visa application according to travel purpose. We followed Temporary Visit for Sight-seeing For Single Entry and this is the list and we highlighted it in RED the documents that mostly of the applicants were lacking: 
   1. A valid passport (Original)
   2. Visa application form (Original)
   3. Colored 4.5x4.5cm photo glued to the application form (Original)
   4. Front and Back identity card issued by Singapore Government (Photocopy) for Non-Citizens of Singapore 
   5. A clear print out of the SGWorkPass Mobile App which displays the latest pass information including the pass status, date of pass expiry/issue/renew/cancellation, occupation and name of employer (scanned within 5 days from application date)
   6. Certificate of Employment (Original) 
   7. Latest year notice of issued by IRAS Singapore
   8. Personal Savings accounts showing the holder's name current balance and latest 1 month's banking transactions.
   9. Letter of Sponsorship from sponsor
   10. Photocopy of document to prove relationship such as Marriage/Birth certificate
   11. Sponsor’s Income Tax Notice of assessment
   12. Sponsor’s passport (biodata page) and ID card (Photocopy)
   13. Flight Booking
   14. Schedule of stay (Daily activities)

All of the above should be printed in an A4 size paper. 

There are documents that has a downloadable format/samples in Japanese website, those were application form, schedule of stay, and letter of sponsorship. It is very straightforward all you need is to fill it up. Below are the screenshots of what we had given to the consul.
