If you want to buy electronic devices from Japan, you need an electrical converter/adapter as their voltage is lower than ours.This post has been edited by ckkean: Jun 27 2013, 03:57 PM |

Believe me that PS4 behind will say made in Malaysia.Plus most impotant are Japan used 110V, Malaysia are 230V. Your adapter will blow up if used in Malaysia and socket head also diffrent. |

Haha..My curiosity, say this clause in Japan embassy of M'sia on Visa exemption QUOTE When you enter into Japan, your entry permit will be issued at the entry point by the Japan immigration (This is the same for those who enter into Japan with a valid travel visa). Please take note that you might be asked about your purpose of visiting Japan or requested to submit necessary documents (For example: Return flight tickets & etc.). Hmm...Wondering what else document they need somemore.... |

QUOTE(chris_chiewhj @ Jun 27 2013, 11:13 PM) ... When you travel normally you have in a nice folder: return flight itinerary (e-tix), hotel reservation vouchers, train or local flight bookings, car rental confirmation, insurance docs, etc. Sometimes the agent wants to make sure you are a genuine visitor, so docs like these help.My curiosity, say this clause in Japan embassy of M'sia on Visa exemption Hmm...Wondering what else document they need somemore.... |

QUOTE(zstan @ Jun 27 2013, 03:38 PM) looks like i still need a visa. oh well Your passport has to have that 'chip' symbol, meaning it's compliant with ICAO standards. As far I know, Malaysia started issuing such compliant passports from Feb 2010. |

I have a few question regarding student visa:
1. My passport will expire in Nov 2014 and I am going to Japan to study in Sept 2013. Will I get a 2 year student visa? 2. After I renew my passport, how do I transfer my student visa to new passport? Or do I need to reapply? |

My passport had the chip embedded inside the passport. Is that still ok to use as I have no problem using it through the second link Immigration from Singapore to Malaysia using the automatic machine.\
Do I need to renew my passport to have the chip visible on the outside? |

Is that still ok to use as I have no problem using it through the second link Immigration from Singapore to Malaysia using the automatic machine.\ If the cover has no 'chip' symbol then it's not compliant for Japan, regardless if it can be used here in MY. Better apply for visa.Do I need to renew my passport to have the chip visible on the outside? If your passport expires next 6-12mths maybe worth thinking of applying for new one, but you can only get back 6mths of unused time, i.e. new passport valid for 5yrs 6mths. |
