Currently, it is mandatory to take a PCR test 72 hours prior to your flight when returning to Japan. You must also bring the results and a Certificate of Testing for COFID-1919 before departure.
Please let me know if you know of any medical facilities in the West LA area that can provide the test results immediately and certify the test in the format provided by the consulate.

You should avoid going back to Japan now. The risk of crashing is higher because you haven't flown for a while. The Indonesian plane the other day was a good wake-up call.

Please let me know if you know of a doctor in Orange County who can issue a certificate to Japan or if you have actually received one. The consulate's website only lists Los Angeles. I would also like to know where I can get a PCR test in Orange County to fulfill the documents to be sent to Japan, and what the fee is. I would also like to know if there are any places where I can take a regular PCR test for free, regardless of whether I am going to Japan or not.

#6, #9,

The aircraft that went down in Indonesia the other day was not the latest Boeing 737 Max that has been out of service since 2019, as I mentioned in another topic. the B737MAX is still grounded and not a single aircraft is flying worldwide.

The plane in the recent accident was an older B737-500 that had been flying for 26 years.

The only flight between LAX and Japan is ANA's NH005/NH006, which still flies daily. The aircraft is a B777-300ER, and it continues to fly even with the Corona Disaster, so I think it is safe.

I returned home last November 1 and returned to LA on December 1. I arrived at Haneda and immediately took the PCR test. The time required was 15 minutes. The results are immediately available. Even then it was illegal to leave the airport by public transportation. I had arranged a hire car as per the government, but no one ever checked it. Even if you test negative, you are required to stay at home for 14 days, and the government will contact you every morning on line to confirm. Of course, you are free to do whatever you want. There were about 30 people on the plane both going and returning. By the way, on the way back to Haneda Airport, all restaurants, stores, and exemptions were closed at 5:00 pm, except for a sushi restaurant.

I also needed to return home and called all the consulate lists, but
they either didn't connect or didn't do PCR or were all dead.
I was also told that the antigen test would give me the results in 15 minutes. I was so happy to hear that
there are two types of antigen tests and they only do the one that they don't accept
I was so disappointed. Consulate, get a grip !.

I too may need to return to Japan next month and am doing some research.
The consulate list seems to be updated ( added ) each time, but it is tight to have the results rewritten on the designated form to receive them in a limited 72 hours.

I saw an article the other day that said the LAX PCR is $125 and the results are available in 3-5 hours, which meets the requirements for some Latin American countries, but I was not sure if it is safe to go to Japan, partly because Japan is now ( stopping foreigners from entering the country ) with some exceptions. I'm not sure if it is safe to go to Japan. If I find out, I will share it here, but if anyone is using it, I would like to know.

Also, someone on the message board recently told me about the following site.
Thank you so much. I have not been able to find out the costs and appointments yet, as I need to call them directly, but if anyone has more information about this as well, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share it with us.

I cannot use public transportation, HIS said they can arrange a hire car

When you are exonerated, do the airport staff keep

ss,
thank you for your valuable information.
Please take care of yourself with the surgery.

keiresume,
I searched for words like "temporary return home voluntary isolation" and found various facilities.
Some of them included transportation. Many are still for Haneda ・ Narita arrival.
Of course, it is best not to go out during quarantine, but if it is unavoidable, such as to get food, they are allowed to do so. I am considering staying at a private accommodation or an extended-stay hotel with a kitchen because I want to reduce my chances of going out and because I am anxious about not having anything to do in a small place. The following sites are examples of private accommodations that are relatively nationwide. We hope this will be of some help to you.
https://ikidane.jp/corona/index.html

Also, from what I have read, it seems that it would be smooth to have a Japanese phone number if possible, for communication during quarantine. If you are staying at your parents' house, etc., that seems to be fine, but I am thinking of arranging a Japanese SIM card. ( My current phone is SIM unlocked, so )
I think I can enter the country without it, but I want to reduce the hassle.

I also wanted to write and ask if anyone could tell me about the 72 hour pre-test.
I have contacted several travel clinics and the only one that can guarantee a result is the antigen test, but most do not meet the criteria for a "qualitative" test. The price was over $450 per person.

If you are going back to your home country or have already returned and have information on testing, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me. Thank you in advance.

El Segundo (2041 Rosecrans Ave El Segundo CA 90241)
The cost is $ 225
including proof, and insurance is not supported.
Need to go twice for testing and receipt of results.
Tests are done Mon ~ Fri 9am- 4pm, Sat 8:30am-1pm, closed Sun
Results are available after 2pm the next business day ( Monday for Saturday tests )

I have not yet received mine, so any further questions or confirmation is please contact the facility directly.

Really, it's gone for some reason.

Actually, I emailed Passport Health as well as their Nsight to ask about insurance coverage and payment details.
At that time, I wanted to make sure that all the information in the Japanese format was covered, so I itemized the items and asked ? if they were all listed in the results.
However, I never received a reply.

Insurance was listed as not accepted if you look closely at the site.
I'm curious about this place because they have optional antibody testing and you can book it on the web
I'm wondering if the results come in an email ( or PDF ? ) signed by the doctor.
( ss was able to enter the country just after the regulation changed, so it is possible that the signature was missed. I may be overly concerned )

If anyone else has used this service or can confirm anything, I would be happy to hear from you.
I'm not sure if I should contact Nsight again because I have to work during the day and if they answer my emails by phone, I often can't get to them.

Nsight.
I called Passport Travel today and made an appointment.
Initially they informed me to come and get the results, but when I asked today they said they would email them.
I think ( the one with immediate results was $ 75 and the more precise one sent to the lab was $ 125. RT-PCR was $ 225. )

Negative proof on return is also expensive & and time consuming in Japan in many places.
I'll list one place that looks relatively good in Osaka and Tokyo ( completely in my opinion ) as it might be useful for someone.

I was let off because it was right after the regulation changed ?, and you wrote
Hmmm... great imagination. I honestly felt very bad.
I felt that your words were useless in response to what I had written, so I erased the previous ones.

The doctor's signature was clearly written on the form, and
I don't think you can enter Japan if you don't have the necessary information on the form provided by the Japanese side.
I have no problem with the checks at LAX airport and at entry into Japan. You are making a big fuss all by yourself. Thank you for your effort.

# 35

Thank you for remembering.
I passed the check of the airline ( ANA ) when I left the U.S., and
I got the stamp of "Inspection Certificate" at the check-in counter when I entered Japan without any problem.
The appointment for the PCR test was easy, and although the test result was supposed to be within 24 hours, it actually took about 6 hours
to receive the test result. I think it is safe to say that all the necessary details on the Japanese side are clearly indicated.

I am very sorry for making you feel uncomfortable in response to the kindness you have shared with us.
I was in a hurry to gather various information when I suddenly decided to return to Japan, and I was curious about a Youtube video of a person who actually entered Japan right after the revision of the regulation,
saying "I think the format was originally not allowed, but I could pass.
I thought about asking Mr. ss to reconfirm this, but he said it was surgery, so I hesitated. I'm really sorry that I even made you delete it as a result.
