Detail
The exact rule for each country, what you need to carry, and the government page it comes from, with the date each entry was last checked.
German citizens can enter Japan without a visa for up to 90 days.
Germany is on Japan's visa-exempt list — single-entry 90 days. Extendable to 180 days at a regional immigration bureau.
What you need
German citizens can enter Thailand without a visa for up to 30 days.
From 15 September 2026, German citizens can stay in Thailand visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism, replacing the 60-day exemption; the stay can be extended once by up to 30 days (Royal Thai Embassy, Washington DC, updated 10 September 2026; Tourism Authority of Thailand). Travellers who entered before 15 September usually keep the stay they were granted (UK government travel advice). Visa-exempt entry is limited to twice per calendar year: the Tourism Authority of Thailand applies this to land-border entries, while the Thai Embassy in London states it without that distinction, so check before planning several trips.
