Introduction:
Various COVID-19 countermeasures were taken at Japan border control policy, especially, the return mission of Japanese nationals from Wuhan and the response to the Diamond Princess are considered to be cases that have stood out worldwide attention.
On the other hand, in response to the variants after December 2020, strict measures were taken, such as testing all those who entered Japan, quarantining those who tested positive, and requiring those who entered from certain regions to wait at some hotels even if they tested negative.

The results of measures will be reported in this study.
Conclusion:
