Visit Japan Web Guide

Twenty-one pages that get you from the plane door to the arrivals hall without standing in the long queue.

Visit Japan Web is free and official. The problem is that the government's own instruction manual runs 243 pages, and most guides online still describe a version of the system that no longer exists. This one shows you the real screens, in order, with the exact words to put in every field.

What's inside:

• All six Visit Japan Web screens, one per page, with what to type on the facing page
• The single QR code that replaces every paper form, and the one mistake that stops it scanning at the counter
• Photos of both paper forms, with filled-in examples, for the day your phone dies
• A vegetarian and Jain customs checklist covering khakra, theplas, namkeen and dry fruits. What packs fine, what gets you pulled aside
• The questions the immigration officer asks, and the answers to give
• Troubleshooting for when the code won't generate, plus the tax-free shopping feature almost nobody knows about
• One page designed to be screenshotted and kept on your phone
