What to Do if You Have a Problem on Your Trip

You may come across problems while traveling in Japan. If you lose your passport, are involved in an incident, suffer in an accident, or are in an area when a major natural disaster such as an earthquake happens, you’ll suddenly have problems to deal with.

At times like these, your country's embassy will help you. The embassies in Japan provide support and help resolve problems for their citizens.

We’ve compiled a list of the contact information for each embassy in Tokyo. We highly suggest checking your embassy's information before your trip so you’ll be ready for any unforeseen problems.
