I have a Japanese and an American passport.
I am going to Singapore via Japan. When I am only going back and forth between Japan and the US, I use my Japanese passport when entering and leaving Japan.
Then when I go to Singapore from there, I leave Japan with my Japanese passport,
and show my Japanese passport when I enter Singapore as well, is that correct?
Does it mean that I only use my American passport when entering the U.S.?

I want to avoid trouble as much as possible, so please let me know if you know.

If you're under 22, you're a legal dual citizen, so you can do whatever you want
If you're over 22, it's already a felony when you produce a Japanese passport

I am wondering if I should register for Visit Japan Web with a Japanese passport or an American passport.
If I have a Japanese passport, I think it is correct to register with a Japanese passport, but
I would like to hear from anyone who has dual citizenship and registered with an American passport.
In the end, it doesn't matter which passport you use.

Dear Blue Hill, I see that your daughters are entering the country on US passports.
I am also leaning towards entering the country with a US passport.

When you register at visit japan web, the first question is "Do you have a Japanese passport?", do you answer "No" there ？ I am wondering if I should say "No" or "Yes" there.

I asked how I should answer the question if I have a Japanese passport,
and was told that if I answer "yes" to ↑ the question if I want to register with my American passport, I cannot proceed.
So I guess I have to answer "no".

Dear Toshiro,

My daughters are 31 and 25 years old, but they maintain both nationalities.
I was able to renew my Japanese passport even though I declared dual citizenship at the Japanese consulate, probably because I was born in the US.

Since you are coming back to Japan from Singapore, it is easiest to leave and enter Japan as a Japanese national.
If you are not returning to Japan, there is no problem with being an American. If you became a dual citizen not of your own volition, there is no problem. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a notice to shelter the former president of Peru in Japan.

Did you renew your daughters' Japanese passports after they turned 22 years old? ？ When you renewed your daughters' passports, were you asked to choose their nationality? If you know, I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

Dear M,

My daughters renewed their passports once in Japan and once in the US after they turned 21.
In Japan, I honestly declared that I was a US citizen, but they said they would not take it away because the policing department and the passport renewal department are separate, and I was able to renew properly. However, they took a copy of my American passport.
This was a long time ago, so I don't know now.

In the U.S., when I renewed my visa or green card, they asked me if I had a visa or green card, so I declared that I was a U.S. citizen, and I think they also took a copy of my U.S. passport.
But I was able to renew.
I don't think I was told to choose one in particular.

A friend of mine knows someone who works at the consulate, and he told me that it is a good idea to say that you choose Japan for now.
He said they can't take passports from people living in the US forcibly. That's right. If you take away their visas, green cards, and citizenship, they can't live here.

Dear Mr. Aoka,
Thank you very much for your kind attention to this matter. This is good news because I thought that even if I had dual citizenship since birth, I would not be able to renew my Japanese passport once I turned 20. Thank you very much.

If it's a serious crime, even if you have a visa or green card, it's going to be invalidated by deportation.
As for your passport, if you are deported, it will be taken away from you and not returned until you return to Japan.
