I know that if you are a US citizen, it is impossible to renew your Japanese passport in the US because you cannot present your green card, but
can you renew your Japanese passport while you are temporarily in Japan for a few weeks ?
I looked on the website, All I need to renew is the passport that is about to expire and an application form.
Since it takes 7 days from application to receipt, is it theoretically possible to renew my Japanese passport during my temporary stay
even after obtaining US citizenship?

If you agree, it is not a good idea to facilitate the crime, because it is a felony.

Will I have to obtain U.S. citizenship and then apply for and hold a Japanese passport?
