In recent times, there have been numerous cases of Japanese individuals, including sex workers and genuine Japanese tourists, being denied entry to the United States when using tourist visas.
This is due to differences in the understanding of the sex industry between the United States and Japan. People working in industries that involve physical contact, offering alcohol and food to young women in the company of male clients, or even those who are simply friends with sex industry workers, have been reported to be denied entry into the United States in various articles.
Therefore, I would like to confirm whether Japanese celebrities traveling on tourist visas will continue to encounter no issues. Recent Japanese celebrities have been engaging in group activities as part of promotional efforts to sell CDs. These activities include:
- Physical contact services with celebrities, often referred to as handshake events, offered to CD purchasers. - The right to have conversations with celebrities at both online and real-world event spaces.
Participants in these activities range from middle school children to women in their 20s. There have been criticisms within Japan, suggesting that these activities resemble aspects of the sex industry and accusations of violations of child labor laws and international laws.
Is it safe to assume that celebrities belonging to such groups can enter the United States on tourist visas without issues?
For reference, we will provide photos of representatives from Japanese groups and their social media and Wikipedia URLs. 0109君の名は(ジパング)(ﾜｯﾁｮｲW 3171-q0f1)2023/11/05(日) 20:40:08.97ID:fIqYVU3k0 観光ビザでのアメリカ入国基準の確認
