Japan is starting to charge tourists more to visit

I have been wondering about this. What could the government do to charge more for tourist in the case of overcrowding.

You cant charge more for flight or entrance fees because that will damage business travels or people simply visiting relatives etc.

Do what Bhutan does: "impose a daily sustainable development fee of US$100 a day on all nationals" that don't have an official residence status nor Japanese citizenship. Special applications for special exemptions could exist, too. Japan loves paperwork.

Do this for just one year, amass a huge fund[0]. The next year, remove it, and see even more renewed interest to come.

[0]Likely would be gobbled up by the fund managers going to hostess bars.

Meanwhile you can buy entire houses in livable condition for 32k in parts of Japan.

For some value of "you"? Isn't it notoriously difficult to live as a foreigner in Japan and buy property there?
mc3301•9mo ago
I don't know about "notoriously difficult to live as a foreigner in Japan." I mean, you DO need a visa (residence status), but it's easier to get than a lot of countries.

You don't legally need to even be a resident to buy a property here, so there's that.

And yes, beautiful homes in beautiful places can be found for quite cheap here. But what social media doesn't tell you is that most of those places need a lot of work, are very far away from anything, and there is no "growth" of any kind in those areas. If you have the cash, no kids, work remotely and are willing to learn the language/culture... totally doable.

Buying is easy. Renting is hard. You can go buy ten houses on a tourist VISA. Just find a property agent.
