Is it possible to obtain a visa to Japan with a Crimean residence permit in the Embassy of Japan in Moscow?
Responds information department of "Subtlety of Tourism"
Unfortunately, at the moment receiving tourist visas by Crimeans on the basis of Russian passports directly in the Consulates of Europe and Asia is problematic. If you want to visit Japan for recreation, it is better to seek the help of a trusted travel agency, which as an intermediary will issue a visa under the old rules if you have an internal Ukrainian and foreign passports.
Since Japan, like the European Union, does not recognize the accession of the Crimea to Russia, it is necessary to submit exclusively Ukrainian acting documents, and to the Consulate of the country in Ukraine - the Russian representative offices of Japan can not issue you a document, or with it there can be difficulties in traveling. Therefore, in order to get a positive response from the Consulate of Japan about obtaining a visa, use the documents of Ukrainian citizens, not Russia.
