Can a Filipino passport holder travel in transit through Narita Japan?

Upvote:1

Filipino citizens don't need a visa to transit at Mexico City (MEX) airport, provided you stay in the international transit area and your layover is less than 24 hours. You wouldn't be able to transit without a visa at TIJ or any other Mexican airport, though.

Neither do you need a transit visa for Japan.

Timatic, the database which airlines to use to verify passenger travel documents, states:

Mexico (MX)

TWOV (Transit Without Visa):
Visa required, except for Passengers transiting through Mexico City (MEX) with a confirmed onward ticket for a flight to a third country within 24 hours. They must stay in the international transit area of the airport and have documents required for the next destination.

Japan (JP)

TWOV (Transit Without Visa):
Visa required, except for Passengers with a confirmed onward ticket for a flight to a third country on the same calendar day. They must stay in the international transit area of the airport and have documents required for the next destination.
