One night in Tokyo

Featured Replies

Hello gentlemen.  I’ve just got one question.  I’ll be in Japan soon for a brief 29 hour trip.  I know that I’m supposed to submit my hotel info on the Japan Web form. My question is, since i will be staying at a private room with a male escort through his escort agency do i need to put the address for the escort service or should i make a cheap booking at a hotel and just list that even though i won’t be there except to checkin/out.  Thanks.

I find it difficult to parse what you're saying. Could you rephrase your question? For example, what is a "Japan Web form" with those capital letters? What do you mean by "staying at a private room"? Do you mean AirBnB?

Oh sure i can rephrase it.  When traveling to Japan everyone must submit their hotel reservations for the duration of their stay in Japan via a government website called Visit Japan Web.  
I will only be in Japan for one night and i will be staying at an apartment provided by Danshi Gueken(DG) escort agency.  I was going to hire an escort and get a hotel room separately but it is more cost effective to pay one price that includes the escort fee and use of a room provided by the agency.  
 

I’m just wondering if when i fill out the Visit Japan Web form if i should put down the address for the escort agency as that’s where i’ll be staying or if that may set off some kind of red flag because the agency is likely not registered as a hotel so maybe the immigration agent may have questions about it.   The easy way around this may be to book a cheap room somewhere else just to have as my official hotel while in actuality i’d be staying at the escort agency room.  Sorry for the long convoluted post. I’m just worried about making a mistake.

I recently visited Japan and mistakenly put the adress for the letting agency instead of the actual place we had rented on my form. I only realised, when I was in line to process migration, so I didn't change it. There was no issue at all. I think it's just a formality to satisfy the bureaucracy.

That’s good to know.  I may just put the agency address down then. I was thinking of renting a $30 a night capsule hotel just to put on the form but maybe it’s not necessary. Plus if they ask about the agency address i can tell them all the details because as i understand, this is all completely legal in Japan.  

I would not even put the Agency's address. I'd put a nearby inexpensive hotel - or virtually any inexpensive hotel, for that matter. You'll be well out of the country before anyone even starts to check.

Hmmmm maybe i’ll do that.  I wonder if the agency is charging the required tourist taxes if it’s operating somewhat like a hotel.  My trip is only one day so i  bet it already triggers extra suspicion.  I plan to come back to Japan early next year and don’t want to run afoul of their laws.

No one will check the address. Just write down the address from any hotel. Even they do (check it later), your travel plans have changed and you stayed in the apartment of a friend. 

Btw, may I ask, which escort you choose?

I've thought about it some more and I will just be honest and list the agency's address that I will be staying at.  It's all legal from what I understand and I prefer to potentially have an awkward yet truthful conversation at customs rather than get caught lying on an official form in a country that I like a lot and want to visit again for years  to come. I considered booking a $35 per night capsule hostel just to list the address but I'm not doing that.  I'll report back on how it goes.  I booked Yosuke. He's a fun straight boy and loves to wander Tokyo with me and eat at tasty restaurants.

Thanks for the informations. Yosuke is not on my list, but, you believe he can speak English? I think he isn't doing anything in bed, so you just walk around with him?

You’re welcome.  I recall he was enjoyable to kiss and jerk off with.  He’s exactly what i was looking for on my last trip.  Like a local guide in a country i’d never been to before that can help smooth all the language barriers.  His English is sufficient for me.  We both enjoy language and we discuss English and Japanese words often because we’re both trying to improve. His English is way better than my pitiful Japanese.  Google Translate helps.

As others have said, nobody would have checked.

Probably.

You made the right decision. Better honest than sorry.

It went smoothly.  Basically a conveyor belt line. Good to know for future reference.  I’ve been here a few times now and the various trains from the airport still bewilder me. I always end up in the right place but i imagine there could be a more streamlined way to handle ticket purchases. But what the heck do i know!

You've probably already been and left, but I don't think the Japanese government has the resources to check every address of every person visiting Japan. I've gone and moved around the country, changed Airbnbs, etc., but none of that was reflected on my immigration form. I would just put any hotel. They won't check. I think they'd only refer to that if there were a problem and they needed to find you.
