Japan’s strict border restrictions will be loosened next month, the prime minister announced on Sept 22, allowing tourists to easily enter for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

In a news conference in New York, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said independent tourists would again be welcomed as of Oct 11, not just those travelling with authorised groups.
