Japanese passport holders enjoy visa-free entry to Vietnam for up to 45 days (policy extended through 2028), Thailand (60 days), Philippines (30 days), and Malaysia (90 days). For Vietnam stays longer than 45 days, apply for the 90-day e-visa (US$25) online at evisa.gov.vn. No medical or dental-specific visa is required.
Japanese National Health Insurance (国民健康保険) does not cover elective dental treatment abroad. Purchase a short-term travel policy (海外旅行保険) covering medical complications and emergency dental care — Sompo, Tokio Marine, and AIG offer popular options. Your SmileJet clinic's warranty covers treatment-related issues separately.
All SmileJet quotes are in JPY. Clinics accept Japanese bank transfers (via Wise or SWIFT), Visa, JCB, Mastercard, and cash (JPY, USD, or local currency). ATMs widely available. Notify your Japanese bank of foreign travel.
全てのSmileJet提携クリニックには英語を話す歯科医師とコーディネーターがいます。 Every SmileJet partner clinic has English-speaking staff. Several partner clinics in HCMC, Bangkok, and Manila also offer Japanese-language coordinators on request.
Vietnam: October to April (dry season) — also an excellent winter escape from Japan. Thailand: November to March. Philippines: December to May. Malaysia: year-round. Avoid Golden Week and Obon for flight prices; avoid Lunar New Year for regional clinic closures.

Everything you need to know before booking dental treatment abroad.
Japanese dental care is world-class, but implants and complex prosthetics fall outside National Health Insurance (kenpo) and must be paid privately. A single private implant averages ¥350,000–¥500,000, All-on-4 runs ¥2,400,000–¥3,200,000 per arch. NHI covers basic treatments, extractions, and some crowns but caps on material choice (metal over zirconia) push patients who want premium aesthetics into private pay.
Direct Tokyo flights to Southeast Asia — Manila in 4.5 hrs, HCMC in 6 hrs, Bangkok in 6.5 hrs — make dental tourism genuinely accessible. Japanese dental tourism traffic has grown steadily, particularly to HCMC where a large Japanese expat community supports clinics offering Japanese-speaking care. The typical Japanese SmileJet patient is 50–75 years old, has been quoted ¥1,500,000+ at a Tokyo private clinic, and is increasingly comfortable with regional travel.
Every SmileJet quote is in JPY, support operates during Japan business hours via WhatsApp and LINE, and partner clinics are vetted against 47 safety criteria. Many partner clinics employ Japanese-speaking coordinators; some partner dentists have trained or practised in Japan. Post-treatment, we coordinate records with your Japanese dentist and back every clinic with the SmileJet Global Warranty.
Manila is the shortest flight (4.5 hrs) with strong English fluency. HCMC offers the lowest prices at 6 hours and has a supportive Japanese expat presence. Bangkok has the most mature dental tourism infrastructure. KL sits between on price. Most Japanese patients choose based on language support needs, treatment scale, and holiday preferences.
Look for ISO 9001 or JCI accreditation, dentists with internationally recognised credentials, verifiable material sourcing (Straumann, Nobel Biocare, IPS E.max, or GC/Kyocera for Japanese preferences), and fluent English or Japanese communication. Google reviews with recent dates, patient photos, and a written warranty you can take home are non-negotiable.
Most Japanese patients plan 6–10 weeks out. Send X-rays to SmileJet, receive 2–3 matched clinic options within 48 hours, confirm your preferred clinic, book flights and accommodation. Bring your dental history (診療記録), medication list, and travel insurance (海外旅行保険). On return, share your clinic's treatment file with your Japanese dentist.
