▋Accompanying Person

We have the following assumptions for registering accompanying persons for VISA:

Accompanying persons should visit the conference venue.
Accompanying persons can join conference events except for technical sessions.

We charge registration fees for all accompanying persons and have the following restrictions in issuing Japanese visas to them:

The IROS organizing committee and agency (JTB) only helps to apply for business visas. Accompanying persons should visit the conference venue as the issued visas are for business purposes.
Accompanying persons can access the conference’s exhibitions, competitions, and social events.

Because of COVID-19, the Japanese government stopped issuing personal tourist visas. However, your accompanying person who does not attend the conference may apply for a group tourist visa through your local agency if he or she is not going to attend the conference but instead travels to Japan for sightseeing. Group tourist visas are irrelevant to IROS. Accompanying persons do not need to pay and join the conference if they apply for tourist visas.

Please refer to the following government page for more information.
