From July Onwards, UAE Nationals Can Stay In This Country For Up To 90 Days Visa Free!

Are you someone who has plans to travel to Japan in July or August? Or maybe the months after? Well, then you are in for some brilliant news! We say this because UAE nationals will now be able to extend their stays for 90 days without a visa from July onwards in Japan. Here’s everything you need to know about this massive development coming from the culturally rich country.

Visa-Free Entry For UAE Citizens For 90 Days

As revealed in a report by Khaleej Times, UAE citizens will now be able to stay for up to 90 days without a visa in Japan. This is a big deal, as previously it was only allowed for up to 30 days. Moreover, the decision will come into effect from July 1, 2025, as announced by the UAE Embassy in Tokyo.

However, one must keep the eligibility criteria in mind before thinking that they can make use of this. Yes, for the visa waiver measure, you must fit the following criteria:

  • You should be a UAE national and must hold a valid ordinary passport. These should be ICAO-compliant IC passports.
  • The purpose of your visit should be a short-term stay, which could be either for sightseeing, visiting friends or relative/businesses.

Visa-Free In Japan, Why You Must Visit

At this point, it’s worth mentioning that UAE nationals have not been required to apply for a visa since 2022. Yes, they have been able to visit visa-free since then. Moreover, the UAE also introduced visa-free entry for Japanese nationals for a short stay, not exceeding 90 days, back in 2024. So, with this visa waiver in place, people will certainly be able to make the most out of their travel, all the while staying for a longer number of days.

In case you’re wondering, Japan is home to several cities that are unique in their own ways. From the buzzing nightlife in Tokyo to the culturally rich city of Osaka, Japan is truly a country worth visiting if you also wish to explore the beauty of this nation.

So, go ahead and plan your summer vacations or maybe even a winter vacation if that’s what you want with this fantastic development.
