[Warning] Management of passports and valuables and crime prevention measures

Oct. 10, 2025, 12:45 a.m.
1. Reports of lost and stolen passports to our Embassy have been received at a higher frequency than usual.

2. If you lose your passport, it will take time to prepare the necessary documents to apply for a new "passport" or "return travel document." Furthermore, in the case of "passports," since March of this year, passports have been produced in Japan in a centralized manner, so it is now taking longer to issue them than before. Please be aware that if you lose your passport, you will be forced to stay in Japan until your travel documents are issued.

3. Management of passports and valuables and crime prevention measures To avoid the above-mentioned situations, please be mindful of your valuables and take measures such as always keeping your belongings in a visible place, closing your pockets and not opening your bag, and not storing your passport, wallet, and other valuables in the same place. Crimes such as pickpocketing and purse snatching are expected to occur, particularly in crowded places such as tourist destinations, so please take crime prevention measures such as carrying your bag across your body, especially in crowded places, and getting into the habit of constantly checking it. Also, in hotel buffets and restaurants, do not leave valuables on your seat when you leave, and always keep your valuables on you and in your sight.
