The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare requires all international visitors to submit their passport number and nationality when registering at any lodging facility (inns, hotels, motels, etc. ). Additionally, lodging proprietors are required to photocopy passports for all registering guests and keep the photocopy on file. Contactless check-in and contactless check-out are available. Please note that some properties do not permit guests with tattoos to use the onsite public bathing facilities.
