To get your Japanese QR codes for entry in 2026, you must use the Visit Japan Web official portal (vjw-lp.digital.go.jp). You begin by creating an account and registering your basic information, including your passport details and flight number. The process is divided into three main sections: Immigration (Disembarkation Card), Customs Declaration, and Tax-Free QR (optional, for shopping). After you answer the required questions about your stay and what you are bringing into the country, the system will generate a unique QR code for each section. You should take a screenshot of these codes before you fly, as you will need to scan them at automated kiosks or show them to officers upon arrival at airports like Narita, Haneda, or Kansai. Using this digital system significantly speeds up your processing time compared to the old paper forms, allowing you to bypass long manual entry queues and head straight to the "e-gates" for a faster exit into the city.
