Upon arrival, travelers from mainland China will be required to submit a negative COVID-19 test as a result of the rapid spread of the virus in the country, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced on Tuesday. China’s travellers who test positive will be required to be quarantined for seven days, Kishida told reporters. He added that the newly implemented border measures would take effect on December 30 at midnight.

As a result of strict COVID controls that lasted more than two years, Japan’s borders reopened to tourists in October.
