Countries You Can Visit with a Valid Japan Visa on your Philippines Passport (2024)

If you have a valid USA Tourist Visa, there are many Visa Free Countries you can go to with your Valid USA Visa on your Philippine Passport. Valid Schengen Visa also exempts you from getting a visa in certain countries especially in Europe even to Non-EU or Non-Schengen countries.

As a powerful and fantastic country, Japan also allows you to visit other nations. So, if you are planning to travel into one of these countries one day, mas mabuti if you will apply for a Multiple Entry Japan Tourist Visa para less hassle and less expense.

Your multiple-entry Japan Tourist Visa could not only give you entry to Japan, but it could help you go to other visa-required countries. No more processing visa to those specific countries as you are exempt from having one if you have a valid Japan Visa. Ang saya, diba? With your valid Philippine Passport and Japan Visa, you could enter countries without processing additional visa applications.

So, what are the countries you could enter with your Valid Japan Tourist Visa?

Mexico

Continent: North America
Language: Spanish
Capital: Mexico City

With your Valid Japan Tourist Visa in your Philippine Passport, you could enter Mexico, the land where they celebrate the “Day of the Dead,” where you can witness their culture and also makes you sing “Remember Me” from the movie Coco. Mexico is special to us as it is where our first luxury experience had at Paradisus Cancun.

If you process a Mexican Tourist Visa, it will cost you a processing fee of Php 1,864.00 plus you need to pass documents and need to be interviewed by the Consul. So your Japan Tourist Visa would help you not experience the additional hassle due to visa applications.

Going to Mexico, there’s a direct flight from Japan (Narita) to Mexico City. However, cheaper flights are usually from the US or Canada. So If you don’t have a visa from those countries, then the right choice is from Narita.

What to do in Mexico:

• Roam around the Plaza del Zócalo and appreciate the architecture of the buildings around it

• Discover the ancient ruins from the Mayan era in Tulum National Park

• See Agua Azul Waterfalls in person and be in awe of its beauty

• Take pictures with pyramid-shaped temples of Chichen Itza

• Relax or hike around the Bosque de Chapultepec after being in the bustling city

Montenegro

Our new home, Montenegro is where we are enjoying our Expat life near the beaches and mountains at Herceg Novi.

If ever you are in Montenegro, don’t be shy to message us and we could hang-out, and you will meet our lovely cats too.

Processing a Montenegro Tourist Visa can be done online. However, it will cost you EURO 124 (About Php 7,000) not including the EURO 30 (About Php 1,700) DHL fee for your visa. It will take 3-4 weeks for your visa application, so it’s a great win to have a multiple entry Japan Tourist Visa. Makaka-save ka ng Php 8,700, pwede na pang-gala na yon.

If you want to go to Montenegro without getting a Schengen Visa then you can fly via Turkey so you don’t need a transit visa. If you're going to make the most out of your trip, get a Schengen Visa or Turkey Visa.
