Visa Support

Application deadline: May 19, 2025 (23:59, JST]) # same as early-bird registration deadline

If you need a visa, please check the “Visa Support” box on the registration form when registering. The Local Organizing Committees (LOC) will contact you individually with more details at a later date.

Please note the following:

  • Beforehand, please verify whether you need a visa to enter Japan by visiting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan’s website below.

  • The LOC will issue visa support documents only for participants whose abstracts have been accepted and who have paid their registration fee in full by May 19.
  • PDF copy of visa support documents will be dispatched to applicants by mid-August. If you need the original documents, they will be sent by mail. However, the LOC will not be held responsible for any visa delays caused by postal delays.
  • Submitted documents will be used solely for issuing visa support documents and for no other purpose.
  • This Visa Support is only for visa application support, not for visa issuance support.
  • Applications may be refused if deemed inappropriate by the LOC.
  • It is recommended that applicants have at least six months of validity remaining on their passport at the time of entry into Japan.
  • The LOC may entrust all or parts of bulk-mailing or data entry operations to a third party. In such a case, the LOC requires the third party (through a contact and other means) to handle personal data adequately and appropriately so that the personal data will not be leaked, lost, or misused.
