Hi i just want to as about visiting japan i hope you would help me. I am working here in canada but i dont have my permanent resident yet, only open permit, im still waiting for my PR. If i want to visit in japan do i still need to apply for tourist visa or i am already qualified to go in japa without a visa? My purpose to go there is to visit my friend if i need a visa what is my chances to be denied of japan embassy and how much show money do i need to prove that i can support my self while staying there. I am planning to stay there for 1 month. Do i need a garantor or much better to apply it as independent? Pleaze give me some info and advice. Thank you
