Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Raises Travel Alert Level for Six Middle Eastern Countries

Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has raised the travel advisory level for six countries in the Middle East.

For the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Bahrain, the level has been raised to Level 3 (Advisory to Avoid All Travel).

Due to airport closures making it difficult to depart these countries, Japanese nationals wishing to leave who are staying in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the UAE will be transported overland to Riyadh and Muscat, where airports are still operating. In light of the difficulty of securing airline tickets under the current circumstances, the Government of Japan will arrange charter flights to transport them to Tokyo.

To ensure the smooth implementation of departure assistance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan is dispatching an Emergency Response Team (ERT) overseas to the region and states that it will make every possible effort to protect Japanese nationals.
