The Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo has stated that the information circulating about the ban on Indonesian workers entering Japan in 2026 is inaccurate. The embassy emphasizes that the information is not official and has not been conveyed by either the Indonesian or Japanese government.
According to the press release received in Jakarta on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, the Japanese government has never conveyed such information, and the issue is not part of the official discussions between the Indonesian and Japanese governments.
This statement from the Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo is in response to the circulation of information on social media claiming that Indonesian workers will be blacklisted by the Japanese government. The embassy highlights that the bilateral relationship between Japan and Indonesia continues to thrive.
The embassy stresses the importance of maintaining and strengthening this relationship by all parties, both the governments and the people of both countries. The Indonesian community in Japan actively collaborates with the Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo and the Indonesian Consulate General in Osaka in activities that strengthen people-to-people relations and support the Japanese government's initiatives, such as the acceptance of foreign residents and the realization of a harmonious and inclusive society.
The Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo encourages Indonesian citizens in Japan to continue working, learning, and excelling in their respective fields, and to actively promote Indonesian culture. Furthermore, the embassy advises Indonesian citizens to abide by the rules and laws in Japan. The Japanese law enforcement authorities have the jurisdiction to handle legal cases, including those involving foreign nationals.
"In every activity, Indonesian citizens are expected to uphold norms, ethics, culture, and abide by the laws in Japan," stated the Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo.
In efforts to maintain a safe and conducive environment for all Indonesian citizens in Japan, the Indonesian Embassy in Tokyo, together with the Indonesian Consulate General in Osaka, continues to communicate and coordinate regularly with Japanese authorities. This relationship extends beyond the central government level, reaching various prefectures and cities to ensure the protection and comfort of Indonesian residents and workers in the Land of the Rising Sun.
