You'll need to check the
list of the countries that have
the visa exemption agreement with Japan. If your
country is included in the list, then you will not
be required for a visa when entering Japan under
normal circumstances. If your country is not
included in the list, you'll need to obtain a
short-term stay visa from the embassy of Japan in
your country.
Please read the
Japanese visa guide provided by
the ministry of foreign affairs carefully. And be
informed that it is the embassy of Japan in your
country that makes a decision on issuing a visa.
Whether the attendees need Letter of Invitation
fully depends on the relations between countries.
The conference organizers hereby reiterate that we
are neither able to nor authorized to decide the
relations between countries.
