Japan will issue multiple entry visas for short term stay of Indians from July 3 onwards, the embassy of Japan here said Thursday.
"The government of Japan has decided to begin issuance of multiple entry visas for the short term stay of the Indian nationals (ordinary passport holders) from July 3," a statement from the embassy of Japan in New Delhi said.
