☆【MEDIA ALERT】Updated travel advice to all Irish citizens in Japan：Embassy of Ireland, Tokyo Japan☆

Updated travel advice to all Irish citizens in Japan

The Embassy of Ireland continues to actively monitor the aftermath of

the 11 March earthquake/tsunami and aftershocks and is paying particular

attention to the situation regarding the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power

plant. We continue to liaise closely with the Japanese government and

EU/international partners in this regard.

Given the difficulties arising from the present situation, including

potential disruptions to the supply of essential goods and services, we

would encourage Irish citizens to consider leaving the north east of

Japan and the Tokyo region. This is particularly the case for people

with small children. Those seeking to leave these areas should make a

travel reservation as soon as possible. We are not specifically advising

people to leave Japan.

The Embassy's website is updated with the latest information as it

becomes available to us as well as appropriate travel advice. This

website will remain the primary method of conveying information on the

situation to Irish nationals in Japan. The website may be accessed via

the following link:  http://www.irishembassy.jp/

 

We are also advising Irish nationals to closely monitor the advice

provided by their local authorities.

If you are in an affected area, please contact the Embassy (if you have

not already done so) to confirm your status and location or if you

require consular assistance.

The Embassy can be reached as follows:

Landline: +81 3 3263 0695
