Because Fukuoka has been recently very popular among tourists, an early reservation is strongly recommended. InsuranceTo all attendees from abroad, We strongly urge you to purchase travel/health insurance for your stay in Japan. Medical care is excellent, but expensive here. Thanks for your understanding. VisaTo those of you requiring a visa to visit Japan, It is your own responsibility to check whether you need a visa and to obtain a valid visa. The Fechner Day organization will not provide any financial support for visa applications. We advice you to first consult the Website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan to get information about visa requirements and application procedures. If you need documents, e.g., an invitation letter from the Organizing Committee, please ask Mrs. Yuko Maruyama (rcaps [at] design.kyushu-u.ac.jp), the secretary of ReCAPS. Bear in mind that a visa application usually takes at least 1 month to complete, excluding the time it takes to send documents from Japan to you. Therefore, please contact Mrs. Maruyama as soon as possible if you require (a) document(s) from us. The ReCAPS office is open only two days a week in June, and will be open three days a week from July, further supported by another secretary and longer working hours of a student assistant. Thanks for your understanding. WeatherGenerally the weather in Fukuoka during the season of Fechner Day 2017 is nice. The average precipitation over 30 years in the last 10 days of October is around 17 mm. The average temperature is around 17 degrees Celsius, with the average maximum around 22 degrees, and the average minimum around 13 degrees. Probably you need a jacket. |
