| Dear Friends of the EBC,
Since 11 October, Europeans no longer need a visa to enter Japan for a short stay not exceeding 90 days. However, there are still required documents to prepare before entering the country and the EBC team wrote a summary for you.
Yesterday 18 October, the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan organised the European Joint Chambers Networking Party 2022. Several Chambers from European countries participated in the event and it was the ideal opportunity to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the EBC with a nice birthday cake!
Today, we would like to share with you two events organised by our stakeholders :
- The 7th Inter-Chamber Ski Race and Networking Retreat, Lotte Arai resort, Niigata – Skiing, snow, onsen, fun, race, family and friends
Networking at a mountain retreat while enjoying a good time with friends, family and business contacts is the promise of the Inter-Chamber Ski Race series. Open also to snowboarders and onsen lovers, it brings together members of foreign business chambers in Japan, members of the Japanese business community, contacts from Niigata and friends of Alpine winter sports.
Date: 18 February 2023, registration open from this week
Supporting chambers include the chambers from Belgium-Luxembourg, Denmark, Germany, Spain, Swiss and hopefully many more.
- The Nordic Chambers of Commerce in Japan are happy to announce the return of the Nordic Christmas Gala on 8 December.
The Nordic Christmas Gala is the only large scale gala dinner in Japan celebrating Nordic culture. It is a great opportunity to celebrate the end of the year with family, colleagues, friends and business partners.
The Nordic Christmas Gala is organised jointly by DCCJ, FCCJ, ISCCJ and SCCJ.
Members of the European Business Council will be able to attend at members rate.
For full event information and registration, please see the event page.
We hope you stay positive and healthy during this difficult time.
