General Information about Japan
⇒ Passport & Visa
To visit Japan, visitors must have a valid passport. A visa is required for citizens of countries that do not have visa exemption agreements with Japan. Please contact your nearest Japanese Embassy or Consulate for visa requirements.
⇒ Duty Free Imports
Personal effects and professional equipment can be brought into Japan duty free as long as the items and quantities are deemed reasonable by the customs officer. Visitors can also bring in 400 cigarettes, 500g of tobacco or 100 cigars; 3 bottles of alcoholic beverages; 2oz of perfume; and gifts and souvenirs with a total market price of less than 200,000 yen or equivalent.
There is no allowance for tobacco or alcoholic beverages for persons aged 19 years or younger.
Firearms and other types of weapons and narcotics are strictly prohibited.
⇒ Insurance
The organizer accepts no responsibility for accidents that might occur. Delegates are encouraged to purchase travel insurance before leaving their home countries. Insurance plans typically cover accidental loss of belongings, medical costs in case of injury or illness, and other risks of international travel.
⇒ Climate
The temperature in Kobe during the period of the Congress ranges between 10℃ and 18℃.
⇒ Currency Exchange
Only Japanese yen (\) is acceptable at regular stores and restaurants. Certain foreign currencies may be accepted at a limited number of hotels, restaurants and souvenir shops. You can buy yen at foreign exchange banks on presentation of your passport.
⇒ Traveler’s Checks & Credit Cards
Traveler’s checks are accepted only by leading banks and major hotels in principal cities, and the use of traveler’s checks in Japan is not as popular as in some other countries. VISA, MasterCard, Diners Club, and American Express are widely accepted at hotels, department stores, shops, restaurants and nightclubs.
⇒ Tipping
In Japan, tips are not necessary anywhere, even at hotels and restaurants.
⇒ Electricity
Electric current is uniformly 100 volts AC throughout Japan. However, electricity is provided at either 50 or 60 cycles, depending on location: 50 cycles in eastern Japan; and 60 cycles in western Japan (including Kobe).
Leading hotels in major cities often provide two types of electrical outlets (100 volts and 220 volts), but their sockets usually accept only two-pronged plugs.
⇒ Shopping
Shops and other sales outlets in Japan are generally open on Saturdays, Sundays and national holidays as well as weekdays from 10:00 to 20:00. Department stores, however, are closed on one weekday, differing by store, and certain specialty shops may not open on Sundays and national holidays.
