Traveling to japan (From OZ)?

Question:


Hi,

I'm planning on traveling to Japan, just wondering if it's hard (as in complicated) to get back to OZ? I heard from several sources that it's difficult to get back to OZ due to the recent nuclear radiation. Just wondering if it's true?

I'm New Zealand resident btw, working in OZ (Sydney), Looking forward on hearing your answers

Thanks for your help!

Answer:


You should have no problems at all. The majority of Japan is back to normal and operating as usual. All international airports are operating and this even includes Sendai Airport, which was damaged by the tsunami, and the bullet trains are all running as normal. The Australian Department of Foreign Affairs Travel Advisory has even been lowered to normal so should have no problems.

You will need a valid passport and do not require a visa as you can obtain landing permission on arrival without a visa as a NZ citizen. This is usually good for a stay of up to 90 days. In some cases you might also be asked to prove that you intend to return to your home country, which can be done via a return plane ticket.
