Warning: If you're overseas right now (at the time of writing, August 2021) and don't have residency in Japan, there's a high chance you won't be able to get into Japan. Japan's entry restrictions have been strict during the pandemic, with no signs of letting up in the next few months, and even new entries on work or study visas have reportedly been restricted.
