All fees must be paid in CASH only in BDT — no card payments accepted at VFS. ⚠️ November 2024 major change: Embassy of Japan no longer accepts direct applications — ALL applications must go through VFS Global Dhaka only. ⚠️ eVisa and Visa on Arrival NOT available for Bangladeshi passport holders — physical sticker visa only. ⚠️ Apply within 3 months of your intended travel date — applications submitted too early may not be accepted. Photo MUST be 2 inch x 1.4 inch (51x36mm) — standard 35x45mm photos are WRONG size for Japan visa. Detailed day-by-day itinerary is mandatory and heavily reviewed — vague or missing itinerary is a common rejection reason. Japan does NOT provide reasons for visa rejection — reapply after at least 6 months with improved documents. DO NOT purchase non-refundable airline tickets before visa approval. Income tax certificate for last 3 years is strongly recommended — missing this weakens financial profile.
