Why this verdict
Japan does not give blanket visa-free entry to all Indonesian passport holders. The base path is a residence-based JAPAN eVISA for applicants residing in Indonesia, while a separate lighter carve-out exists for holders of registered ICAO-compliant Indonesian ePassports.
Conditional rules
- Holder of an ICAO-compliant Indonesian ePassport registered with a Japanese diplomatic mission in Indonesia Visa-free
Up to 15 days. Registered Indonesian ePassport holders can enter Japan visa-free for up to 15 days under the separate waiver arrangement. That waiver is distinct from the residence-based eVISA track used for the broader Indonesian ordinary-passport cohort.
