Traveling from Japan to the United States just got a little easier for many Japanese citizens.

The U.S.

currently has a Visa Waiver Program (VWP) in place, which allows eligible Japanese travelers to visit the U.S.

for up to 90 days without the need for a traditional visa.

To be eligible for the VWP, Japanese citizens must have a valid e-passport and obtain an approved Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) prior to their trip.

The ESTA is an online application that screens travelers for security risks and takes only a few minutes to complete.

Once approved, the ESTA is valid for up to 2 years or until the traveler's passport expires, whichever comes first. - https://japanfocusguide.com/blog/us-visa-exempt-for-japan/?unique_id_s1r30l7e
