Essential Japan Updates | 7 New Things to Know Before Traveling 2024

Japan has recently faced several challenges impacting travel, including currency fluctuations, scams, and natural disasters. The yen’s appreciation, after a period of depreciation, could affect travel costs for international visitors. Meanwhile, the anticipated return of Suica, a popular IC card, signals recovery from supply issues caused by a semiconductor shortage. However, the rise in unauthorized cab operations, known as “Shirotaku,” poses risks for tourists. Additionally, Japan’s earthquake-prone nature underscores the need for vigilance, especially following recent severe earthquakes. These issues highlight the importance of staying informed when traveling in Japan.
