You should check with a lawyer for more details, but if you are going back to your country, you need to return it or if you really need to go back to Japan for longer than 6 months, you need to go through the procedures or you won't even be able to enter the US.

An acquaintance of mine tried to enter the U.S. via Hawaii on a tourist visa without a permanent resident visa, and was told that he could not enter the U.S., but if he insisted, he was told to pay for the entry.

I heard that Hawaii is more strict than Los Angeles.

If you lose your Permanent Resident status, you can still get Social Security in Japan.　Call 800-772-1213 8am - 7pm, M-F or visit Social security administration 20000 Mariner ave 150 Torrance CA 90503. If you don't want to pay 30% tax, you need to file a non-residential return with the IRS when you leave.　
2. You must reside in the US for at least 180 days per year to be eligible for permanent residence.　If you file a special application, you do not have to return for 2 years, but you can only apply for that twice, 2 years and 2 years only.
3. permanent resident status expires naturally if you have not resided in the U.S. for more than 180 days.
4. I have seen children taken to a separate room at immigration, even if their residence abroad was only a few days past 180 days.

The point is that permanent residence is valid because you are living there, so if you are not living there, as others have said, we recommend that you get US citizenship and then return to Japan.　And in Japan, you should live as a foreigner.　Once you have applied for U.S. citizenship after having returned to Japan for a long time with a special application, there is a contradiction and also you cannot apply for U.S. citizenship immediately, so I think it is better to get citizenship from the beginning to avoid problems.　The current citizenship is a corona issue, and it will take a year and a half to get it, and I will be able to get it in March next year.

The point is what to do with Japanese citizenship after acquiring US citizenship. Frankly speaking, the Japanese side should not know. The U.S. side tacitly accepts dual citizenship. Therefore, they will not report to Japan that Mr. A has become a U.S. citizen.
How will you maintain your Japanese passport? If you have a residence in Japan, you can keep your residence card in Japan and pay your pension and National Health Insurance. Then you can renew your passport in Japan without any problem. Tax returns can be filed without income in Japan.
You will not be asked whether or not you have a GC when entering or leaving Japan. They don't even ask you where you are going. They do not even ask where you are going. You simply enter and leave Japan with your Japanese passport. In the U.S., you simply use your U.S. passport to enter and leave the country.
However, the U.S. side is very tax picky, and you must not make enemies with the IRS. Therefore, you must apply for a 1040 every year, even when you are living in Japan. However, there is a special exception for U.S. citizens living abroad. This is only theoretical.

I will add a few more.
Whether you can obtain permanent residence again ？ You cannot, but if you want to spend the rest of your life in the U.S., you should obtain citizenship as soon as possible. But if you get it, the procedure is quite troublesome if you don't want it anymore.
GC knows your departure date from the U.S., so the number of days will be calculated by that. If you go to Canada or Mexico by land, your departure date is not known. The U.S. side does not control it. We recommend the same route when you come back. Then you can return to Japan from Canada or Mexico. However, you need to have a place of residence in the U.S. for your annual tax filing. However, these too are becoming more and more difficult. Computer management is a problem.

Suppose, for example, that a husband, after acquiring citizenship, does not renounce his Japanese citizenship even though it is required by law.
The wife became a permanent resident as the spouse of the husband who became that U.S. citizen. And when the wife's passport is about to expire
and she goes to the consulate to renew it, the wife's permanent resident card has information that her husband's citizenship made him a permanent resident.
So they find out that the husband has become a U.S. citizen but has not gone through the process of renouncing his Japanese citizenship.
The consulate orders him to renounce his Japanese citizenship. But ！ the husband continues to ignore it. （ Thinking that he would never find out ）
the consulate will send him several advisories. If he continues to ignore it, the consulate will send the husband's information to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Then the husband returns to Japan, unaware that he is in such a situation.
♯ This is the example that 39 wrote. Immigration has the information that the husband is a citizen, so they will ask him to choose
either one on the spot, because Japan does not allow dual citizenship. This is because Japan has a law that does not allow dual citizenship.

When you receive your citizenship in the U.S., you will go through an oath-taking ceremony, where you will be told to
immediately renounce your citizenship if your country does not recognize dual citizenship. This is fine because the U.S. recognizes multiple citizenships, but for those who have become citizens
it is properly stated as above.

There is no guarantee that a person who has once renounced Japanese nationality will be able to re-acquire Japanese nationality in 1 ～ 2 years.
An application for re-acquisition of nationality is submitted to the Ministry of Justice, and then an examination begins.
If the applicant is found to be in violation or does not meet the requirements, even if he/she is a former Japanese citizen, he/she may not be able to re-acquire Japanese nationality.
You should not be overconfident that anyone can get their nationality back if they apply. In fact, there are people whose applications have been rejected.
Nationality is not something that can be so easily （ freely ） acquired ＆ or abandoned. It is something that is determined by the law when there is a reason to
properly abide by the laws set by the government and when there is no other choice but to re-acquire Japanese nationality.

I think this would be someone who was taken to another room for some reason. From the beginning, immigration does not know who has a case like this husband's, and he was taken to another room because he happened to be caught up in something at immigration. I guess the reason is that when they examined him in detail there, his name was on the blacklist. Once your name is actually on the blacklist, no matter how many times you travel back and forth with your Japanese passport after becoming a dual national, you will not be able to renew your passport when it expires. The blacklist contains the names of people who have acquired other nationalities but have not yet completed the procedures for renouncing their Japanese nationality. This information is shared by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. No matter where in Japan you try to renew your passport, they will not let you renew it because you have acquired U.S. citizenship. And since he is already a US citizen, he is required to renounce his Japanese citizenship, not to choose one or the other.
Those who voluntarily choose to become U.S. citizens and acquire U.S. citizenship are considered to have lost their Japanese nationality at that time. And those who have not gone through the renunciation of nationality procedure are treated as "those who just haven't gone through the procedure yet".

Obligation to Notify of Acquisition or Loss of Japanese Nationality
The Family Registration Law requires notification of acquisition or loss of Japanese nationality ， within a certain period of time, and ， based on this notification, the family register will also reflect the fact of acquisition or loss of nationality.

In case of acquisition of nationality ： Article 102 of the Family Registration Law （ It is necessary to acquire nationality in accordance with the Nationality Law in advance. ）
In case of loss of nationality ： Family Registration Law, Article 103

Gain or loss of nationality occurs automatically, so to speak, when the requirements stipulated in the Nationality Law are fulfilled ， and is not dependent on whether or not the notification act is performed （ except in some cases ） ， If the notification is not submitted, ， there are many cases where there is a difference between the person's perception and the fact ， but in any case, the decision is based on the fact ， for example, ， even if the person has not submitted notification of the loss of nationality, there are cases where the person has already For example, even if the person has not submitted a notification of loss of nationality, the person has already lost his/her nationality, or ， conversely, ， the person thought he/she had lost his/her Japanese nationality, but in fact he/she has not.
Therefore, ， those who have acquired U.S. citizenship of their own volition have ， lost their Japanese nationality at the time of acquiring U.S. citizenship, but ， if they do not report the fact of loss of nationality by notification of loss of nationality, they are treated as if they had Japanese nationality when only their family register is seen. ， If you do not report the fact of loss of nationality by notification of loss of nationality, it will be treated as if you have Japanese nationality, and you may get a copy of family register （ extract ） or ， you may be issued a Japanese passport by mistake, but ， the fact of acquisition or loss of nationality has already occurred and this fact always takes precedence. ， It is important to note that having a family register or a Japanese passport does not necessarily mean that you have Japanese nationality.
Since family registers are compiled only for Japanese nationals, ， it may seem that family registers are a database of Japanese nationals, but ， family registers only reflect the facts that have been reported, not ， those that have not been reported. The family register does not reflect the facts that have not been reported.

* A person who has lost his/her nationality is deleted from the family register when a notification of loss of nationality is submitted, and ， this reflects the fact of loss of nationality in the family register as well. ， Since the family register does not exist after this, ， a copy of the family register （ or an extract ） will not be issued even if requested （ and a copy of removal from the family register will be issued ） as a record of the family register.
Importance of Notification of Acquisition or Loss of Japanese Nationality
Acquisition or loss of Japanese nationality has an extremely serious impact on the legal status of the individual and his/her relatives, ， and also on the economic activities of interested parties in addition to relatives, ， and it is necessary to accurately reflect the facts in the family register ， Therefore, as explained above, the Nationality Law and the Family Registration Law stipulate the obligation to report the fact of acquisition or loss of nationality to the diplomatic mission abroad or the family registry office within a certain period of time.
On the Internet and elsewhere, ， there is some misinformation based on misunderstanding, such as that it is possible to obtain a Japanese passport even after acquiring U.S. citizenship by withholding the fact that one has U.S. citizenship when applying for a passport, and that one can have dual nationality as it is ，. However, ， as we have explained, ， if a Japanese national acquires U.S. citizenship, he/she automatically loses Japanese citizenship at the time of acquiring U.S. citizenship, and ， if he/she obtains a Japanese passport without （ disclosing that fact ） he/she has acquired U.S. citizenship, he/she will be punished by law. （ If you think that a foreigner fraudulently obtained a Japanese passport by making a false declaration, ， you may understand its illegality. ） So ， please do not do this kind of act.
Also, ， if you change your status （ marriage, birth, etc. ） while concealing the fact that you acquired US citizenship （ ＝ or lost Japanese citizenship ）, ， these procedures will be based on a false （ fact ） and you will not be able to obtain US citizenship. ， If the fact of loss of Japanese nationality is found out, all procedures based on untruths after the fact of loss of nationality will be invalid ， and this will have a great impact on the legal status and economic activities of not only the applicant but also his/her family members and other related persons. ， You should not make a false declaration with an easy feeling.

Case 1 ： Mr. A held only Japanese nationality, but ， immigrated to the U.S. and acquired U.S. citizenship. However, ， he did not report the loss of his nationality, so his family register did not reflect the fact that he lost his nationality ， and when he requested a copy of his family register at his domicile office, he was able to obtain it without any problem. ， I applied for a Japanese passport with a copy of my family register （ and did not declare my U.S. citizenship when I applied ） but since I was able to obtain it, I ， thought I was a dual national of Japan and the U.S.
→ Because he lost his Japanese nationality when he acquired U.S. citizenship ， Mr. A has only U.S. citizenship and is not a dual national. The objective fact is that ， a foreigner obtained a Japanese passport by filing a false application ，. Obtaining a passport fraudulently or using a fraudulently obtained passport is punishable by law, so ， you must promptly return the passport and submit a notification of loss of nationality.

Case 2 ： Mr. B, a Japanese man, ， acquired U.S. citizenship and lost Japanese nationality as Mr. A in Case 1, but ， married an American woman a short time later without reporting it and ， registered the marriage at the nearest Consulate General. ， After that, ， a child, C, was born, but Mr. B thought he was a dual national of Japan and the U.S., so he submitted C's birth certificate to the Japanese Consulate General, ， and thought that it was reflected in his family register and C became a dual national too.
However, ， it was later discovered that Mr. B had lost his Japanese nationality.
→ As a condition for Mr. C to acquire Japanese nationality upon birth, ， one of his parents must have been a Japanese citizen at the time of his birth. However, ， Mr. B acquired U.S. citizenship of his own volition before Mr. C's birth ， and lost his Japanese citizenship at that time, so ， both parents were not Japanese citizens at the time of Mr. C's birth. C's Japanese nationality is invalid.
Because Mr. B did not submit notification of loss of nationality, ， Mr. B and Mr. C are listed in the family register as Japanese nationals, but ， this is an incorrect entry that is not based on fact and must be corrected （ by Mr. B submitting notification of loss of nationality, Mr. B Mr. B is expelled from the family register （ and loses Japanese nationality in the family register ） and ， Mr. C has never had Japanese nationality, so ， the family register is corrected as it is an error to have him listed in the family register in the first place. ） .
*If Mr. C has a family and his child Mr. D is born, （ Mr. B's grandchild ） ， Mr. D's Japanese nationality will also be invalidated.
Finally,

＞ When a notification of loss of nationality is submitted, the person who has lost his/her nationality is to be erased from the family register ， and with this, the family register also reflects the fact that he/she has lost his/her nationality.

Most people do not submit the notification of loss of nationality because they do not like this.
Even if you don't submit it, you can live as a normal Japanese without any problems if you return to Japan and then return your American citizenship at the American Embassy in Japan. In other words, honest people lose money.

Do not be indebted to the consulate. They must obey the law once they know. In other words, we can only recommend that you revoke your nationality.
The former president of Peru is a dual citizen. He was able to escape to Japan because of it.
To make this possible, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a notice. To make this possible, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a notice saying that those who have dual nationality without their own will can keep it. If you look it up, it should be there.
This does not apply, but that means this is a gray world. If they ask, it is illegal, but what if they don't know ？
It is not easy to get them to revoke their nationality. So they force you to go through the process of voluntary revocation. They threaten that it is illegal and that there are penalties.
Exchange of information between Japan and the U.S. ？ Not possible, there are privacy issues. For example, it is impossible unless you have cheated on your taxes or committed a major crime.
There is a procedure for that. But do you think they would bother to do that? ？ Government officials don't have that much time on their hands.
Also, what if you have a certificate of residence in Japan and pay a pension ？ If you are in Japan for the time being, you should follow the proper procedures.

U.S. citizenship is not so easy to return. You need to hire a lawyer and go through the process. It is not something you can just say "I don't need it" and return it.
Especially in the U.S., there is the issue of assets. Also, there are crimes, etc., that need to be deliberated on. Either way, you need to be prepared in any situation. Do not make decisions regarding the law based on easy ideas.

For US assets, I recommend Trust, which is the best procedure and does not require Provate. There should be a way to do it yourself if you look it up on the net.
I hired a lawyer.

Regarding the Green Card, I know because I use the air. If you go to Canada or Mexico by land, there is no check on the US side. But, there will be a check when you come back. However, bus and train transportation is not allowed. You have to walk or drive. So now the GC has an expiration date.

The US side has a list of criminals. So if the name and age are close, they check. Japan is the same.

Now everything is difficult because of the corona disaster. It will take time to get citizenship.

If your children are in the U.S., it is always possible to reacquire permanent residence through your children's citizenship.

Mr. pooske
I have a simple question.
I read that I can get a passport in Japan without reporting the loss of citizenship in the U.S., but in that case, since there is no entry stamp to the U.S., does it mean that I have to get a new passport for the loss of passport instead of renewing it?

Dual citizenship after obtaining U.S. citizenship is a violation of the Nationality Law.

In Japan, if an adult man or woman changes his or her nationality of his or her own volition,

his or her Japanese nationality is cancelled when he or she acquires foreign nationality.

Because he/she has not applied to the government office for cancellation of nationality,

he/she mistakenly believes that he/she has dual nationality.

The application form for a Japanese passport has a check box for citizenship of another country, so once you obtain U.S. citizenship, you cannot renew your Japanese passport.　

Like Americans, you can stay in Japan for 3 months without a visa, but if you want to stay longer than that, you need a foreign resident permit. 3 months is required, so you should apply first before returning to Japan.　

It is unpleasant to be treated as a foreigner in Japan, but if you keep lying and hiding, you may not be able to become Japanese again when you really want to.　Because you will become a criminal.

Let me answer your question about Tutsan.
I also called the consulate and was told to remove my family registration before applying for a visa.
Then I thought about it and realized that removing one's family register is the same as renouncing one's nationality.
In other words, people born and raised in Japan don't have a piece of paper to prove their Japanese nationality.
The only proof that you are Japanese is your family register.
The family register department at the government office has no way of knowing that I became an American citizen unless I notify them, and I haven't removed my family register, so it must still be there.
I think that if I have a family register, it means I have a nationality.
Of course I know that Japan does not recognize dual citizenship.

So, back to the question, did you remove your family register to get the visa?
I guess it is correct to say that I did not.
I did not remove my family register because I was still attached to Japan, and I felt that my identity was there.
Also, there was a possibility in my mind that I might return to Japan in the future.
I have heard that the procedure of living in Japan will go more smoothly if I have my family register in order. Anyway, I'll leave my family register as it is for now and hope that Japan will soon accept American travelers without visa like before.

If a Japanese person changes his/her nationality to American and has to obtain a visa
to go to Japan,
the person who changed his/her nationality should think about what to do and come to a conclusion.

Some people cancel their trip, others have to go because of family reasons,
there are various reasons, so they should think about it and come to a conclusion.

But I don't see any posts from people who have cancelled their nationality and got a Japanese visa.
