🇵🇸 Palestine visa requirements for Japanese citizens

Entry rules for Japan passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Japan can travel to Palestine for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Palestine immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Japanese passport ranks #12 worldwide, opening 164 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (117 visa-free, 38 with a visa on arrival and 9 with an eTA). Palestine is one of them.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Palestinian citizens need to arrange entry to Japan in advance (visa required).

Across Western Asia as a whole, 15 of 17 destinations are open to Japanese travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
