"I am vaccinated. I will comply to all the rules that will be required. I will quarantine. I will take PCR tests. But please, now is the moment to let us enter the country."
Immigration authorities say last year about 49,000 people went to Japan to study, down about 60 percent from the year before.
That was largely due to the government's entry restrictions, which bar everyone except those with special circumstances.
