We will enter Munich for the last stop on our October Europe trip.
I will be returning from Munich to Narita.
Please tell me about the negative certificate required at Narita when I return home, and about the test in Munich.
The cost of the negative certificate is about 150 ~ 200 euros.
Please let me know if there is any organization that can issue the certificate at a more reasonable cost.

Trial for amendment of Article 11 of the Nationality Law
Under the current Japanese Nationality Law, a person "automatically" loses Japanese nationality if he/she voluntarily acquires the nationality of another country.
Now, plaintiffs living in Switzerland and other countries are fighting in court to amend this. I think this is an important trial for those of us living in the US.
There is a petition campaign on change.org to amend Article 11 of the Nationality Law. Currently, about 43,000 votes have been collected, but it would be great if more people would sign the petition. The next trial will be held in September. By the way, I am an individual and not a member of this association.

I think the working holiday was up to 18 ~ 30 years old and there was no limit. I think the stay was about one year.

Yes, I can't recommend it right now, but once you get settled in, I would definitely recommend it. I think Harburg Castle and Marienplatz are classic.

・ Various problems have arisen in boarding procedures at departure and quarantine upon arrival in Japan over the validity of the new coronavirus test certificate required for entry into Japan.
In order to avoid such problems, the MHLW recommends that test certificates be obtained using the designated format ( A German version has been newly added to the test certificate format ) .
● Methods of testing specified by the MHLW ・ Regarding the method of specimen collection, we have already informed you in Newsletter No. 690 and No. 704, etc. Please refer again to 3 in the text below. The Antigen-Schnelltest ( Rapid Antigen Test ), which is widely used in Germany, is not recognized as a valid test method, and the laryngopharyngeal swab ( Throat Swab / Rachenabstrich ), a common specimen in Germany, is not recognized as a valid specimen for collection.
●Please see 4 in the following text for laboratories in Bavaria and Baden = Württemberg that are allowed to enter test results in the format designated by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.
