QUOTE(windstruck @ Oct 11 2022, 11:20 AM) I've read a lot on this too, if your luggage is within 28" you are still allowed to bring onto shinkansen. Unless others say otherwise. QUOTE(marfccy @ Oct 11 2022, 11:26 AM) depends on your definition of whats large also see official site rules. if im not mistaken its 1. oversized luggage >250cm tall is now barred 2. size of 160-250cm high allowed but need reservation booking 3. <160cm can be hand carried in and slot onto overhead rack cause imo 250cm luggage is srzly big found the source for Tokyo - Shin Osaka - Hakata - Kagoshima-Chuo, most famous route for tourist JR source but normally our luggage won't bigger than 250cm right?

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Oct 11 2022, 12:12 PM) How small is the kid? If the Kid passport are stick to parent passport that kind, no need. If the kid got own passport, the procedure are same as Adult. Upload the vaccine certificate thru mysos. If kid dont have 3 vaccine shot, kid need do PCR test 72 hrs before departure. i think no need vaccine or PCR test for those less than 18 years old if they go with parents https://www.mhlw.go.jp/stf/seisakunitsuite/...gyou_00013.htmlThis post has been edited by sben525: Oct 11 2022, 12:32 PM

QUOTE(cloud_valentine89 @ Nov 17 2022, 10:52 AM) Hi all, I am travelling to Japan for leisure for 18days. Its quite scary to carry a stack of cash around. I heard about the Revolut but sadly its not available in Malaysia. Is there any other option? Are there any e wallet option available for tourists? Thanks! BIGPAY

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Jan 12 2023, 10:00 AM) Yes, because already endemic. Alot sick people around the world also can go in Japan. agree with endemic already...... but Japanese so hardworking go do the covid test? like in malaysia, i think if we are in covid, and just a bit fever or sore throat, just eat some panadol or sore throat medicine (unless very serious), i think not everyone will do the covid test if the symptoms is not strong This post has been edited by sben525: Jan 12 2023, 10:42 AM

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Jan 16 2023, 09:09 AM) No need Visa. If you don't have booster, you need PCR test with 72 hrs + very very very very long Q because you don't have fast track QR Code. Disembark aircraft > Quarantine Section [Japan Health Department] > Immigration Section > Collect Luggage > Custom Section > Airport Lobby If you don't have fast track, you will be stuck at Quarantine section for hours and hours. Japan currently having 8th wave of Covid surge, daily 100k++ cases. Quarantine Section will be very strict at the moment. Best is you take a booster shot and download fast track QR Code kid under 6 don't have vaccine, and don't have PCR test still need long Q ?? parents have 3 shots This post has been edited by sben525: Jan 17 2023, 11:57 AM
