I have a friend who came back to Japan saying "I will be fine as long as I take a PCR test at LAX for my return home", but he got caught at the airport in Japan and had to go through mandatory quarantine.
I am also planning to return to Japan in December, but I want to make sure that I will be able to return home without being quarantined, so I am planning to bring a negative certificate in Japanese with me.
However, since I am a student, I would like to do it as cheaply as possible, so where is the best place ....
please give me information if you know the location, price or anything ! ! ! ! !

There seems to be some information on the consulate's website. It doesn't mention prices, though.

On the PDF form mentioned above,

it says "Signature by doctor", but it is not clear from the signature whether the person is a doctor or not, and anyone's signature would be acceptable.

Also, "An imprint of a seal" on the right side of the signature is not acceptable, as no one in the U.S. has a stamp, even in a doctor's office, and anything that can replace it is acceptable. To take it to the extreme, you could cut out the name of the doctor's office from the doctor's office business card and stick it on the card with glue.

back to their country of origin for failure to return home, so it is important not to be stingy in this area.

Topic.
Forced quarantine means taken to a government designated hotel.
Voluntary quarantine ( now for 10 days ) does not mean.

I did it a few months ago in Ktown with a teacher who speaks Japanese.
The location was impossible for me. The area was sensitive and the roads were awful.

I called a Japanese clinic downtown to do it, but they were more expensive than others, so I stopped.

Does the forced quarantine mean that you were forced into quarantine because of an incomplete PCR test you took at LAX, even though the PCR you took upon arrival in Japan was negative ?

If it was because of incomplete paperwork, you would not be checked very strictly at the LAX departure counter. ? If it is a non-Japanese airline, there might be no check.

Wasn't it because you tested positive that you were quarantined in Japan ??

You could take a free PCR test at a drugstore in that area and email the results to ?

https://ja.coronashoumeisho.com/

It says $50 to issue a negative certificate. I think the test is also cheaper than getting it done at a Japanese hospital.

LAX,

I don't think the negative proof of PCR test at LAX has a doctor's signature or passport number, but was it still ok ?
How many hours later did you receive the results by e-mail ?

? I am going to Haneda on the night flight on 17th.
Please let me know.

LAX,

Thank you very much.
I looked at Booking online here.
There was a place to fill in passport number.
Did you fill in the doctor's signature or name ?
did you also submit the Japanese form ??

Eri,

Thank you very much.
I was looking for the cheapest place as possible since it is for two people.
I heard that Mr. LAX's wife was able to enter the country with a PCR test at LAX, so $ I am thinking of going to 125 LAX.
I am only worried about the doctor's signature though.

Why do you need the doctor's signature ? There was no doctor's signature on the negative certificate. You can get a document from the Ministry of Health and Welfare from the airline company at the airport. You can submit it in Japan and have an antibody test, and if you can prove negative by saliva, you can enter the country. Of course, when you leave LAX, you also need the negative certificate from LAX. The same applies to the time of entry into Japan.

Mr. LAX,

In response to your question about the test certificate not containing all the necessary information,

If you bring two certificates, one with the prescribed form specified by the MHLW and the other with the negative certificate issued by the institution where the test was performed, both certificates should contain your name, medical institution information ( Name of the medical institution ・ Seal of the medical institution ・ Name of the physician ・ Signature of the physician ) and the date and time of the test collection can be considered as one negative certificate linking the two certificates. ( Other required information can be included on either certificate )

so ・ ・ ・.

I thought that ? as I write now, medical institution information ( medical institution name ・ medical institution seal. Physician's Name ・ Physician's Signature ) means one of these is all that is needed ?
I must have misunderstood that it was Physician's Name ・ Physician's Signature.

My reading comprehension is weak and pathetic.
If it is all on the LAX test results, then you don't need the prescribed form ?
I am relieved now.

Thank you for everything.
