5 JUL 2025 · Listeners considering a trip to Japan in July 2025 should be aware that travel buzz is unusually high, but so are concerns related to recent warnings and changes. This summer, predictions from Japanese manga artist Ryo Tatsuki, who previously gained notoriety for forecasting major disasters such as the 2011 Tohoku earthquake, have gone viral. In her revised 2021 book, Tatsuki highlighted July 2025 for the possibility of a significant undersea rupture near Japan, raising the specter of tsunamis and volcanic activity. Despite there being no scientific confirmation of such an event, her reputation has influenced public perception, leading to a notable drop in travel bookings to Japan, especially among tourists from Hong Kong and other East Asian countries. In response to heightened anxieties, the Chinese embassy in Tokyo issued an advisory in April 2025, urging extra vigilance due to increased seismic activity, though Japanese authorities themselves have not issued disaster alerts specific to July.
Apart from these rumors and advisories, the reality on the ground reflects both opportunity and caution. Travel experts and sources such as Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection consistently rank Japan as one of the safest destinations in the world, with extremely low crime rates and high marks for public order. The U.S. State Department continues to advise regular caution, the lowest possible level for any country. However, travelers are reminded of Japan’s susceptibility to unpredictable natural events, such as earthquakes and typhoons, and are encouraged to familiarize themselves with local emergency procedures and resources.
Summer 2025 brings its own challenges: a surge in crowds due to record-breaking tourism and new rules aimed at managing overtourism in hotspots like Kyoto and at Mount Fuji. Effective July 1st, travelers using the Shinkansen with large luggage must reserve one of only 57 designated oversized baggage seats per 16-car train. This change comes alongside reports of confusion with international hotel booking platforms, with travelers occasionally experiencing reservation mix-ups or missing amenities. Using reputable Japanese booking sites with English support is suggested for a smoother experience.
Weather-wise, Japan’s early end to the rainy season means July and August will be especially hot and humid, so sun protection and hydration are a must. Despite the heat, summer is vibrant with festivals—listeners can look forward to major events like Kyoto’s Gion Festival and the Nebuta festivals throughout Tohoku, along with spectacular fireworks displays.
No special travel requirements or restrictions have been reinstated post-pandemic, and arrival procedures are straightforward for most visitors. For a quicker arrival, filling out immigration and customs forms online and downloading related QR codes before departure is recommended, especially since airport Wi-Fi can be unreliable. Many locals still choose to wear masks in crowded places, a continued practice that overseas visitors can adopt for added comfort and courtesy.
In summary, Japan remains a welcoming and generally safe destination for summer 2025. While viral predictions and embassy advisories have stirred some anxiety, there are no official restrictions or widespread disruptions. Travelers should monitor official channels for updates, carry travel insurance for peace of mind, and take commonsense precautions for heat and crowds. With these measures, a trip to Japan this July promises access to unique cultural experiences and seasonal festivities set against a backdrop of heightened awareness and resilience.

2 JUL 2025 · Listeners interested in traveling to Japan in July 2025 should be aware of a unique mix of recent news, practical travel advice, and ongoing travel advisories that could impact their journey. Currently, official government travel advisories, such as from the US State Department, classify Japan as a Level 1 destination, meaning travelers are advised to exercise normal precautions—the safest category available. Japan continues to rank highly in international safety indices, with Tokyo and Osaka among the world’s safest cities, according to the Global Peace Index and multiple travel expert reviews.
Despite this reputation, July 2025 brings some notable concerns. There has been a wave of worry fueled by a prophecy from Japanese manga artist Ryo Tatsuki, whose previous accurate predictions have captured public attention. Tatsuki’s warning of a significant natural disaster in July 2025, possibly an undersea rupture leading to a massive tsunami, has led to a measurable drop in travel bookings, especially in East Asian markets. The Chinese embassy in Tokyo issued a specific advisory this April urging heightened caution due to recent seismic activity, despite the Japanese Meteorological Agency not confirming any imminent threat. This has contributed to increased anxiety among international travelers and locals. Some rumors circulating online, particularly in Chinese-speaking communities, mention a possible major earthquake around July 5th, further causing cancellations and reduced flights into Japan, especially to regional destinations.
On the practical side, travelers should be aware of several updates and recommendations to ensure their trip goes smoothly. Japan’s railway system introduced a new Shinkansen luggage rule effective July 1st. Only a limited number of designated seats per train can accommodate oversized luggage, so travelers with large bags must reserve these specific seats in advance. Failing to do so may lead to inconvenience or denial of service for oversized luggage. There have also been increasing reports of booking issues on some international hotel platforms, notably Agoda, where reservation details such as included meals were not properly communicated to hotels. To avoid such problems, using reputable Japanese hotel booking websites with English support may offer more reliability and better rates.
Japan is entering one of its hottest and most humid seasons, with early end to the rainy season and elevated summer heat. Sun protection such as umbrellas and light clothing is highly advised. Despite the weather, July and August remain vibrant months for Japanese culture, with major festivals like the Kyoto Gion Matsuri and Nebuta festivals in Tohoku offering unique experiences for visitors.
Travelers should also pay close attention to Japan’s strict customs regulations. Many medications common in other countries, including certain cold or pain relief medicines, may contain ingredients prohibited in Japan. Advanced scanning at airports has led to stricter enforcement. Failing to declare restricted items can result in confiscation, fines, or denial of entry. Always consult Japan Customs before traveling and declare all questionable items at entry. Additional standard safety recommendations include being cautious in entertainment districts, practicing earthquake preparedness, using travel insurance, and observing local laws such as driving on the left side and securing the correct international driving permit.
While Japan remains a safe and rewarding travel destination, the combination of seismic rumors, updated transport policies, summer heat, and strict customs enforcement make it essential for visitors to stay informed, plan carefully, and comply with all local requirements for a safe and enjoyable visit.

1 JUL 2025 · Japan remains one of the safest and most organized destinations for travelers, backed by its low crime rates and robust infrastructure. The U.S. Department of State maintains a Level 1 Travel Advisory for Japan, indicating travelers should exercise normal precautions. This places Japan in the safest advisory category globally, reaffirmed by several safety indexes—Japan ranks in the top tier of safest countries according to the Global Peace Index, Numbeo, and other international assessments. Experts consistently highlight its effective emergency services and a culture that prioritizes public safety.
Travelers planning trips to Japan in summer 2025 should, however, be aware of several important updates and seasonal advisories. The Japan Meteorological Agency has issued extreme heat warnings for July and August 2025, driven largely by the La Niña climate phenomenon. This has caused temperatures and humidity to rise higher than typical summers, increasing the risk of heat-related illnesses. Anyone traveling during this period is advised to stay hydrated, take frequent breaks in air-conditioned areas, and avoid strenuous outdoor activities at midday. Prepare accordingly if you plan to enjoy seasonal festivals or outdoor attractions.
For those using Japan’s extensive rail system, note that from August 8 to August 17, 2025—the peak holiday period—many Shinkansen lines are switching to a reserved-seating-only system. Travelers must book seats in advance to secure transportation during this high-traffic window. Even holders of a Japan Rail Pass will need to secure reservations, or risk not being able to board at preferred times.
Recent news has also highlighted a surge in travel jitters following predictions by Ryo Tatsuki, a manga artist with a reputation for forecasting past disasters, who warned of a large-scale event in July 2025. Despite the lack of scientific evidence and confirmation from the Japan Meteorological Agency, this prediction has influenced travel patterns—especially among tourists from Hong Kong—prompting cancellations and a noticeable drop in bookings. Additional cautionary advisories were issued by foreign embassies in Tokyo after a period of heightened seismic activity, though no official Japanese warnings specific to July have been announced by authorities.
In terms of daily safety, visitors should follow local customs and laws closely. Japan enforces strict rules on prohibited and restricted items at entry. Fresh produce, meat, certain medications (even over-the-counter cold relief drugs that may be legal elsewhere), and counterfeit goods are not allowed. Travelers are encouraged to declare anything questionable on their customs forms, as failure to do so—even by accident—can result in fines, confiscation, or denial of entry. Japanese customs now use advanced X-ray scanners, and travelers from high-risk regions may face stricter inspections.
General travel tips include using navigation aids for public transit, avoiding rush hours in crowded cities, and being vigilant with valuables, especially in entertainment districts where petty theft does occur. Natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis are unpredictable, so familiarize yourself with emergency procedures and local information resources where you stay. If driving, remember that traffic moves on the left and an International Driving Permit is required.
Travel insurance is strongly recommended for all visitors to provide peace of mind. This will be especially reassuring given the seasonal warnings and the psychological impact of recent disaster predictions, which, while not supported by scientific bodies, have nonetheless affected traveler sentiment.
Listeners interested in visiting Japan this summer should stay updated with official advisories, take sensible health and safety precautions, reserve train tickets in advance if traveling during peak periods, and remain mindful of both local regulations and current climate-related advisories for a safe and enjoyable trip.

28 JUN 2025 · As of June 28, 2025, travelers considering a trip to Japan should be aware of the latest travel advisory and current conditions to prepare accordingly. The U.S. Department of State maintains a Level 1 travel advisory for Japan, meaning travelers are advised to exercise normal precautions, reflecting a stable security environment with no significant threats reported. This places Japan among the safest countries globally, supported by high safety rankings such as Tokyo being the 28th safest city worldwide and Japan ranking 17th on the Global Peace Index. Additionally, American travelers ranked Japan 9th overall in the 2025 Safest Places Ratings, highlighting its status as a secure destination (U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory, travel experts).
Travelers should be aware of new and seasonal conditions that could affect their visit. For summer 2025, Japan Meteorological Agency forecasts an extreme heat warning due to the La Niña effect, which is expected to bring hotter and more humid weather than usual. Visitors planning to travel in July or August should prepare by staying hydrated, seeking air-conditioned spaces, avoiding outdoor activities during peak heat hours, and pacing their itinerary to avoid heat exhaustion. While summer offers unique cultural experiences such as festivals and fireworks, caution regarding the heat is essential for safety (Japan Meteorological Agency forecast).
There are operational changes in Japan’s transportation to consider. For the busy summer holiday period between August 8 and August 17, the Shinkansen trains will operate only with reserved seating, eliminating non-reserved seats. This means that visitors must book their seats in advance, even if holding a Japan Rail Pass, to guarantee travel on preferred trains. This practice helps manage peak travel demand but requires advance planning to avoid travel disruptions (travel updates on Shinkansen seating).
Safety remains a priority with ongoing advisories from the U.S. Embassy in Japan. Recently, they issued a demonstration alert in Tokyo and other cities on June 22, 2025, advising travelers to avoid large gatherings and demonstrations as a precaution, although these events have not been linked to any heightened risks. Normal levels of caution are still recommended when navigating urban areas (U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Japan).
Overall, Japan continues to be a safe and welcoming destination in 2025, with excellent infrastructure and hospitality. Travelers should prepare for extreme summer heat, book transportation in advance during holiday peaks, and stay informed about occasional demonstrations or local events. With these precautions, visitors can enjoy the rich cultural heritage, modern cities, and natural beauty that Japan offers with confidence.

25 JUN 2025 · As of June 25, 2025, Japan remains a safe destination for travelers, with a Level 1 travel advisory, indicating that U.S. citizens should exercise normal precautions. The U.S. Department of State advises travelers to be aware of their surroundings, especially in entertainment and nightlife districts where crime may occur, but overall, Japan is considered highly organized and safe.
Recently, there have been planned demonstrations in Tokyo and other cities, including the vicinity of U.S. Embassy Tokyo, U.S. Consulate General Osaka, and U.S. Consulate General Sapporo. Although these protests are not expected to be violent, it's advisable to avoid large crowds and monitor local media for updates. Travelers should also be prepared for potential changes in demonstration locations and times.
Japan's tourism industry is well-regulated, with clear safety practices and accessible medical services available throughout the country. However, in smaller cities, medical help may take longer to arrive. It's recommended that travelers purchase medical evacuation insurance to ensure coverage in case of emergencies.
For those planning to drive in Japan, an international driving permit (IDP) from the American Automobile Association (AAA) is required for short-term visitors. The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reports that Japan's aviation safety standards meet international requirements.
Additionally, Japan has implemented new entry systems and streamlined airport procedures, making international travel smoother and more efficient. The country is also preparing for increased tourism, particularly with the upcoming Expo, which promises to be a highlight of the travel season.
Travelers should stay informed about local events and regulations by enrolling in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) and following local news and updates from the U.S. Embassy in Japan.

11 JUN 2025 · As of June 2025, Japan remains one of the world’s safest and most popular destinations and currently sits at Level 1 in the U.S. State Department’s advisory system, meaning travelers are advised to exercise normal precautions. There are no widespread warnings or significant safety threats, making Japan a generally low-risk country for international visitors, according to the latest update from the U.S. Department of State.
However, listeners considering a trip to Japan should be aware of several important changes and ongoing developments that could affect their travel experience this year. One of the most significant updates is the launch of a new pre-arrival screening system, sometimes referred to as “JESTA” or a pre-clearance system. This system, introduced as a pilot project with Taiwan, allows some travelers to complete all required border formalities before departing for Japan, streamlining arrival processes and potentially reducing wait times at Japanese airports. Authorities have stated that this system may be expanded to additional countries in the future. While this will help many travelers, it is important to check up-to-date information about entry requirements well before departure.
Transportation within Japan is also seeing key updates in 2025. The Nozomi Shinkansen, Japan’s fastest train service between Tokyo and Osaka, has reduced its number of non-reserved seats beginning in March. More compartments have been converted into reserved seating to enhance comfort and manage increasing passenger numbers. This means tourists who prefer flexibility and spontaneous travel may find non-reserved options more limited, especially during holiday seasons or busy periods. Making seat reservations in advance is now strongly recommended, particularly for those using the Nozomi or traveling on high-demand routes.
Japan continues to experience very high visitor numbers, driving concerns about overtourism in popular places such as Kyoto, Tokyo, and the Mount Fuji region. With a new entrance fee for Mount Fuji and global tourist taxes rising, there is a renewed emphasis on respecting local culture and following new regulations at major attractions. Travelers may encounter larger crowds, especially at sites popularized on social media, and are encouraged to plan their trips with consideration for these factors.
An unfounded rumor about a major earthquake in July 2025 circulated online recently, causing some concern and leading to a limited number of cancellations. There is no credible scientific basis for this prediction, but as always in Japan’s seismically active environment, visitors should familiarize themselves with local safety guidelines and know how to respond in the event of any natural disaster.
Entry requirements for different nationalities remain largely unchanged, but with the ongoing rollout of electronic systems, travelers should double-check visa and pre-clearance requirements using official government sources before booking flights.
In summary, there are presently no broad travel advisories or heightened warnings for Japan. Listeners are encouraged to review the latest official updates, plan for changes in train travel and pre-arrival procedures, and respect new rules aimed at managing tourism’s impact on local communities. By staying informed and planning ahead, it is possible to enjoy all that Japan has to offer with peace of mind in 2025.

31 MAY 2025 · Japan is currently classified as a Level 1 travel destination by the U.S. State Department, which means visitors should exercise normal precautions, reflecting a high level of safety and stability. As of May 15, 2025, no significant safety threats or heightened risks are reported for travelers heading to Japan. For American tourists, the country remains one of the world’s safest travel options, with generally low rates of violent crime and a strongly maintained public order.
Entering Japan has become even smoother for many travelers, with U.S. citizens able to visit visa-free for up to three months. However, travelers should be prepared for certain arrival protocols: Japanese immigration will require biometric measures, including fingerprinting and a photograph, and hotels must photocopy guest passports at check-in. U.S. citizens are encouraged by the Embassy in Tokyo to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program for timely emergency updates and to follow embassy social media accounts for the latest travel notifications.
A notable change for 2025 is Japan’s introduction of a Pre-Clearance system, first piloted for travelers from Taiwan. This allows eligible visitors to complete border and identity checks before departure, reducing time spent at Japanese airports. While this program is still in its early phases, Japan is expected to expand Pre-Clearance to additional countries in the future, offering growing efficiencies for international arrivals.
Listeners planning to use the Shinkansen bullet trains should also note that, as of March 15, 2025, the Nozomi Shinkansen service has converted more non-reserved seating into reserved-only compartments. This means travelers are strongly advised to reserve seats ahead of time, especially during peak travel periods when availability can become limited. Those desiring greater flexibility may want to consider other train types or weigh reserving seats in advance versus traveling spontaneously.
Travelers should remain aware that while Japan is extremely safe, incidents of petty crime like pickpocketing and purse snatching, though rare, can occur, particularly in busy urban centers or tourist districts. Caution with valuables and personal belongings is recommended. Additionally, it's important to stay informed about local conditions, as Japan is prone to natural events such as typhoons, earthquakes, and, less frequently, volcanic activity. The Japan National Tourism Organization provides real-time information on weather emergencies, tsunamis, and other travel advisories, which can be crucial during your stay.
There have been no recent geopolitical or large-scale security developments impacting travel to Japan. However, as travel regulations and conditions can change with little warning, all travelers should regularly review official government resources and verify the latest entry requirements prior to departure.
In conclusion, Japan in 2025 stands out as a welcoming, efficient, and remarkably safe destination for international visitors. With improved airport procedures, updates to rail travel, and continued emphasis on public safety, travelers can expect a smooth and memorable experience, provided they keep up to date with local advisories and plan their transport logistics in advance.

28 MAY 2025 · Japan currently maintains a Level 1 travel advisory status as of May 2025, which means the U.S. State Department recommends exercising normal precautions when visiting the country. The advisory was last reissued after a periodic review on May 15, 2025, with no changes to the security situation.
For American travelers planning a trip to Japan, it's worth noting that U.S. citizens can enjoy visa-free travel for short-term visits up to three months. The U.S. Embassy in Japan welcomes visitors and encourages travelers to follow their social media accounts for updates and consider enrolling in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program for emergency notifications.
Some notable changes have occurred for tourists visiting Japan in 2025. Since January, Japan has implemented a pilot Pre-Clearance system, initially for travelers from Taiwan, allowing them to complete border formalities before departure. This system aims to reduce waiting times upon arrival and enhance traveler comfort, with plans for eventual expansion to other countries.
Transportation changes have also taken effect. Since March 15, 2025, the popular Nozomi Shinkansen has reduced the number of non-reserved seats, converting additional compartments to reserved seating. Tourists are now strongly recommended to book seats in advance, especially during peak travel periods when availability may be limited.
While Japan remains a relatively safe destination, travelers should be aware that petty crimes like pickpocketing and purse snatching do occur occasionally. The Canadian government travel advice notes that crimes against foreigners, while low, have been increasing.
When entering Japan, visitors should be prepared for biometric requirements, as Japanese officials photograph and fingerprint travelers upon arrival. Hotel check-ins require detailed information from foreign guests, including passport photocopies.
In contrast to Japan's welcoming stance, international tourism to other destinations like the United States has seen a decline in 2025, with international travel to the U.S. falling 14% in March compared to the previous year. This decline has been attributed to factors including trade tensions, stricter visa policies, and a strong U.S. dollar.
For those planning to visit Japan, it's advisable to stay informed about local conditions, maintain awareness of surroundings, and follow standard travel precautions while enjoying all that this fascinating destination has to offer.

21 MAY 2025 · Japan Travel Advisory: What You Need to Know Before Your Trip
If you're planning a trip to Japan, you'll be pleased to know that the current travel advisory from the U.S. Department of State is Level 1: Exercise Normal Precautions, which was reissued after periodic review on May 15, 2025. This is the lowest advisory level, indicating that Japan is generally considered safe for travelers.
Japan has been experiencing a tourism boom recently. In February 2025, over 3.25 million foreign tourists visited the country, representing a 16.9% increase from the previous year. With this surge in popularity, several changes have been implemented that might affect your travel experience.
Airport procedures have been updated at major international gateways including Haneda, Narita, and Kansai. Japan has launched a pilot project called Pre-Clearance, which began in January 2025 with travelers from Taiwan. This system allows visitors to complete border formalities before departure, resulting in shorter waiting times upon arrival in Japan.
For those planning to use Japan's famous bullet train network, be aware that since March 15, 2025, the popular Nozomi Shinkansen has reduced its non-reserved seating to provide more comfort for passengers. This means you should consider booking your seats in advance, especially during peak travel periods.
Some concerns have emerged following predictions by a Japanese manga artist named Ryo Tatsuki, who has warned of a possible large-scale disaster in July 2025. While these claims lack scientific evidence, they have caused some travelers to adjust their plans. In April 2025, the Chinese embassy in Tokyo issued an advisory urging caution due to recent seismic activity, though Japan's Meteorological Agency has not confirmed any specific threat for July.
For budget-conscious travelers, there's good news as Japan Airlines has introduced a special campaign offering free domestic flights for foreign tourists. Additionally, the pricing system has been updated, replacing the previous foreigner-only prices.
If you're concerned about natural disasters, Japan has robust warning systems in place for tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and other emergencies. The country is well-prepared for managing such situations, with clear evacuation procedures and public information systems.
When compared to other popular destinations, Japan remains one of the safer countries to visit. Many European destinations like France, Italy, and Spain currently have Level 2 advisories, while Japan shares its Level 1 status with countries such as Canada, Australia, and Ireland.
Remember to stay informed about any changes to travel conditions as your trip approaches. The U.S. Embassy in Japan provides updated information for American citizens, and the Japan National Tourism Organization offers resources to help ensure a safe and enjoyable visit.

17 MAY 2025 · Japan remains one of the safest destinations in the world, and as of May 2025, the U.S. Department of State maintains a Level 1 Travel Advisory for the country, meaning travelers are advised to exercise normal precautions. This advisory was reissued in mid-May 2025 after review, indicating stability and no significant new risks for international visitors, according to the U.S. State Department and the U.S. Embassy in Japan. This Level 1 status is the lowest advisory and a strong indicator of Japan’s overall safety for tourists.
In recent months, Japan has witnessed a record surge in tourism, with more than 3.25 million foreign visitors arriving in February 2025—a nearly 17 percent increase over last year. This tourism boom comes alongside several changes in travel regulations and infrastructure upgrades. Notably, major airports such as Haneda, Narita, and Kansai have implemented new electronic entry systems and improved ticket machines to streamline arrival procedures for foreign travelers. Japan is also piloting a new Pre-Clearance system that, for now, allows certain travelers to complete all required border checks before departure, reducing wait times upon arrival. While initially launched for visitors from Taiwan, this system is expected to expand to other countries over time, enhancing airport efficiency.
There are also important updates that impact travel within Japan. From March 15, 2025, the Nozomi Shinkansen, which is the fastest bullet train on the Tokaido line, has reduced the number of non-reserved seats. Now, more compartments are dedicated to reserved seating, so travelers are advised to book their tickets in advance, especially during peak travel periods and holidays, to ensure availability. The tourism boom means seats may sell out more quickly, making advance planning essential for a smooth journey.
Travelers should also be aware of specific regional alerts. The Japan National Tourism Organization reports a Volcanic Alert Level 3 for Mt. Kirishima (Shinmoedake) as of April 2, 2025. This means visitors should not approach the volcano, and it is wise to monitor local advisories if you plan to travel in volcanic regions.
As Japan continues preparations for major international events and further tourism growth, some fees related to international departures are expected to increase. Additionally, new campaigns such as free domestic flights for foreign tourists are being launched, making local travel even more attractive and accessible.
In summary, Japan presents very few safety risks for travelers, but those planning a visit should take note of evolving entry procedures, changes in train ticketing, and select regional travel alerts, such as volcanic warnings. Staying informed about these updates will help ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience in the country.
