Japan tightens entry ban
日本暂停外国人新入境
Japan on Saturday decided to ban the entry of most foreign nationals, except those from the Chinese mainland, Vietnam, Singapore and other regions that have managed to bring COVID-19 under control, from Dec 28 to the end of January, following the detection of a new variant of the novel coronavirus in arrivals from Britain.
鉴于近日有从英国出发、到访日本的人员被检测到了变异新冠病毒,日本政府12月26日决定,从12月28日起至明年1月底暂停批准外国人入境,来自中国大陆以及越南、新加坡等疫情控制较好的地区的人员除外。
Chinese visitors can enter Japan without a nucleic acid test certificate, and those with short-term non-business visas are required to complete a 14-day quarantine upon arrival, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare told CCTV, adding that visitors cannot take public transport after arriving in Japan.
中央电视台记者致电日本厚生劳动省获悉,中国大陆访日人员入境前无需提交核酸检测证明,持短期商务以外签证的入境人员需要在抵达后自主隔离14天,抵达日本后不能乘公共交通工具。
