VJW implementation schedule and the usage period of mySOS
The Japanese government expects to phase out the use of “MySOS” from November 1. If you enter Japan before November 14 (that is, until November 13), you can still use MySOS (you need to register your personal information with MySOS in October). From November, you will be able to use VJW to register your personal information. The use of MySOS will be discontinued from November 14, and visitors entering Japan will no longer be able to apply for an account and register information on MySOS.
In addition, the Digital Agency of Japan expects that from November 1 to November 5, there will be a peak period for VJW registration and that the screen process will be very slow. If you plan to enter Japan on or before November 5, it is recommended that you register your information on “MySOS” within October in order to allow more time for screening.
On October 31, you will not be able to fill in the information for entry into Japan in November (but you can register your account and upload your passport, etc.)
