2025 figures: 1,524 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Italy’s embassy in Tokyo, and 1,515 visas were issued. 9 applications were refused, a refusal rate of 0.6%. That is barely different from 2024 (0.9%). The number of applications was almost unchanged (1,500 in 2024).

Over 2023–2025 the rate ranged from 0.1% (2023) to 0.9% (2024).

Italy issues Schengen visas at 2 locations in Japan; this office handled 69% of their 2,218 applications in 2025. Refusal rates elsewhere: Osaka 0.7%, which makes Tokyo the lowest of the group. Each office serves the applicants who live in its own consular district, so the rates also reflect who applies where, not only how strictly files are assessed.

Across all Schengen consulates in Japan, 5.8% of applications were refused in 2025; Italy’s rate worldwide was 10.8%. Italy received the 3rd largest number of applications of the 23 Schengen states represented here.

Almost every visa issued here allows multiple entries. The statistics count applications, not people, and include every nationality that applies here, not only citizens of Japan.
