“As of April 23, 2026, Japan has banned entry to tourists from Israel.”

False

No evidence supports the claim that Japan banned entry to Israeli tourists. The claim rests on a fundamental confusion between Japan's outbound travel advisories — which warn Japanese citizens against traveling to Israel — and Japan's inbound immigration rules, which are an entirely separate policy. As of April 23, 2026, Israel remained on Japan's visa-exemption list, the U.S. State Department confirmed no nationality-based entry bans existed for Japan, and The Japan Times explicitly debunked this rumor.
