What is gratis in reference to visa fees (Japan Visa)?

score:6

Accepted answer

I see two options:

  1. You are planning to visit Japanese regions affected by the recent earthquake:

    As part of the reconstruction assistance connected with the Great East Japan Earthquake, visa fee for foreign visitors to any region of Fukushima, Miyagi and Iwate Prefectures has been waived provided they satisfy the conditions below.

  2. Since Japanese visa fees are already low ($7) for Indian citizens, the responsible person didn't want to bother with collecting it.

  3. You hold an Indian diplomatic/service/official passport.

"Gratis" means "free". So, you do not need to pay a visa fee. This happens because India and Japan have an International Agreement to facilitate the visas between their nationals, signed in 2010.
