I've been granted a working holiday visa for Japan, which I plan to start next year. Thing is, I've just been invited to spend Xmas with friends in Osaka.
Does anyone know if it's possible to enter Japan on a standard tourist visa, without triggering the start of my working holiday visa?
(I have asked the visa team at the embassy already. They said it might be possible but I'd have to explain and ask the immigration agents once I get to Japan. They couldn't give me a definitive answer. This is great, but I don't want to book all my flights only to get told no once I land in Japan)
