Embassy of Japan in the Philippines

2627 Roxas Boulevard, Pasay City, 1300

Dear Sir/ Madam:

I am writing this letter to show my intent to travel to Japan, and

explain why I am unable to provide an Income Tax Return (ITR) as a part of
my Japan Visa Requirements.

I understand that an ITR is one of the proofs that I have a strong

social and economic ties to the Philippines, and that I will return to my
home country or the specified return date. However, I cannot submit an ITR
for my Japan Visa application at the moment because I am working as a
cook on a small eatery in our town for just a few years the reason why I
couldn’t provide an ITR for now.

I just want to relax and unwind that’s why I wanted to have a quick
visit in Japan that I always dream of. I promise to follow all the rules and
regulations regarding my visit in the said country, and comeback to
Philippines on the right said date.

I am really hoping that you would grant my request for a tourist visa.
Hoping for your kind consideration.

Sincerely,

Edjay Peñamora
