Nice to meet you all.

I will be temporarily returning to Japan for a week at the end of this month for the first time in several years.

I currently have a SIM-free iphone, and I was wondering if it is common to buy a temporary SIM card in Japan ?
I would be happy to know how everyone is doing when they return to Japan! !

If you have any recommendations for companies or plans, could you please finish that as well ?.

I haven't been back home for a few years, so this may not be much help. when I returned in 2015, I used a Telecom Square voice SIM, which was cheaper because ANA offered free per day usage. when I checked on the web, I found that a lot has changed in Corona. I checked on the web and it seems to have changed a lot in Corona. Nowadays, there are docomo and Softbank for voice SIM ( that gives you a Japanese mobile number ), but Softbank seems to be a good choice for short term. Prepaid SIMs sold on Amazon and other places are usually data-only, so unless you use LINE or Skype to make calls, it may be a hassle to call people in Japan. If your current carrier in the U.S. is ATT or Verizon, you may be better off with an overseas roaming plan $ 10/day for a short term. For other SIM rentals in Japan, the following URL may be helpful.

I would like to use fogger (similar to Balsan sold in Japan) for pest control, but is it possible if the room has a fire alarm ?
I thought it would be OK if I turned off the fire alarm, but there are only "nomal, test1, test2" and I do not know how to turn it off. I don't know how to turn off the fire alarm.
If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know ?
Thank you very much.

I am a US citizen but still have a Japanese passport. This time, I really need to go to Japan for family reasons. I would like to leave the U.S. with my U.S. passport and enter Japan with my Japanese passport, but I was wondering if anyone has done something similar with this Corona disaster ? Which passport did you present to check in at the airport counter in the U.S. ? If you have experience with this. Best regards.

If you have not yet returned to your country, please refer to this page.
The following are not available unless you have a visa to stay in Japan, etc.

Counter at departure from the U.S. :
If you have a one-way ticket, you can only check-in with a Japanese passport.
If it is a round-trip ticket and stay within 90 days, either Japanese or U.S. passport can be used.
There is no problem even if the passport presented at the counter and the passport for entry into Japan are different.

Either passport can be used for entry into Japan :
If the stay is less than 90 days, either passport is acceptable.
If you need to renew your Japanese passport or get a stamp of entry for overseas traveler insurance while in Japan,
or stay longer than 90 days, enter with a Japanese passport.
If you use a U.S. embassy or consulate, duty free store, or rail pass, enter with a U.S. passport.
It does not matter if the passport presented at the U.S. airline counter is different from the passport used to enter Japan
.

One-way ticket can only be processed with a U.S. passport.
If it is a round-trip ticket, both Japan and U.S. passports can be processed.
There is no problem even if the passport presented at the counter and the passport for departure from Japan are different.
However, the passports to be presented to the Japanese inspector must be the same for entry and exit.

When entering the U.S. :
U.S. Citizens are required to enter with a U.S. passport.

Don't worry about consistency regarding passports when entering and leaving the U.S.
I don't care about it because the country has many dual nationals.
If your U.S. passport is valid and you are not a criminal, there is no problem.

If you enter the U.S. with a U.S. passport, your Japanese passport will not have a U.S. entry stamp, and
since Japan no longer has a stamp, both your Japanese and U.S. passports will be blank and
it is unclear where you went.

The passport presented at the airline counter and the passport for entry into and exit from Japan and the U.S. may be different
but the passports presented to the Japanese inspector must be the same for entry and exit.

I know this is a long and tiresome process, but as you can see, you can only enter Japan with a "Corona Disaster".
I think you cannot enter Japan with an American passport.

# It is not clear where you went to if both your Japanese and U.S. passports are blank.

If both Japanese and U.S. passports are blank, immigration control is not that appropriate ?.

There is a vending machine where you can buy Wagyu beef at a gas station in Tsuyama City.
Lately, you can buy all kinds of things from vending machines. This may be the first time I have seen it installed in a gas station.
