Viewing cable 07TOKYO4927, COUNTRY CLEARANCE FOR DEPUTY ASSISTANT SECRETARY

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #07TOKYO4927.

4.  (U)  Control Officer will meet DAS Arvizu at the gate and 
assist to an Embassy vehicle. 
 
---- 
Visa 
---- 
 
5.  (U) Holders of U.S. diplomatic or official passports must 
have a Japanese visa to enter Japan.  Travelers on a U.S. 
tourist passport may enter Japan as a tourist without a 
Japanese visa for up to 90 days. 
 
6.  (U) As of November 20, 2007, all foreign nationals 
entering Japan, with the exemption of certain categories, are 
required to provide fingerprints and a facial photograph at 
the port of entry.  This requirement does not replace any 
existing visa or passport requirements.  Official U.S. 
travelers will have to submit to the photograph and 
fingerprinting requirement unless they travel with a valid 
diplomatic or official visa or a Note Verbale.  The nature of 
the passport onto which the visa is pasted is not relevant, 
i.e. a tourist passport holder with a diplomatic or official 
visa will not have to submit to the biometrics collection 
process.  SOFA personnel are exempt under SOFA Article 9 (2) 
from the new biometrics entry requirements. 
 
---------------------- 
Embassy Laptop Policy 
---------------------- 
 
7. (U) Official visitors are reminded that personally owned 
or non-controlled USG-issued electronic equipment (including 
all PDAs, cell phones, pagers, radios, records) may not enter 
the controlled access areas.  Additionally, all classified 
and sensitive materials must be secured at the embassy visit 
control office upon arrival in country. 
 
----------------- 
Threat Assessment 
----------------- 
 
8.  (U) U.S. Government facilities worldwide remain at a 
heightened state of alert.  As the U.S. Government has 
reported in public announcements over the last several 
months, U.S. citizens and interests abroad may be at 
increased risk of terrorist actions from extremist groups, 
which may target civilians and include suicide operations. 
The Department maintains information about potential threats 
to Americans overseas which is available to travelers on the 
internet at the Bureau of Consular Affairs home page: 
http://www.travel.state.gov.  The Embassy takes all threats 
seriously.  U.S. Embassy Tokyo can be contacted 24 hours a 
day at 03-3224-5000 (locally) or 81-3-3224-5000 
(internationally). 
 
9.  (SBU) The general threat from crime in Tokyo and 
 
throughout Japan is low.  Crime is at levels well below the 
U.S. national average.  Violent crime is rare, but does 
exist.  The Japanese National Police report continued 
problems with pick-pocketing of foreigners in crowded 
shopping areas of Tokyo.  Although street crime is low, 
common sense security measures are advised for all American 
citizens traveling in Japan. 
 
10.  (U) Also be advised that under no circumstances may 
weapons be brought into Japan.  Carrying a pocketknife 
(including Swiss Army-style knife, craft or hunting knife, 
box cutter, etc.) in public is forbidden.  Under Japanese 
law, carrying any such item in public, with a size exceeding 
8 cm in length, 1.5 cm in width or 2 mm in thickness, can 
subject the person to arrest or detention.
