What kind of country is Mongolia?

Mongolia, known for its nomadic culture, is about four times the size of Japan, with 80% of its land suitable for nomadism. In recent years, it has also become known as a filming location for a certain hit drama.

From Japan, it's about a 6-hour journey to the capital, Ulaanbaatar, but in Mongolia, located inland and at high altitude, you can find attractions that are different from Japan in terms of climate, culture, and nature. In addition to the World Heritage Altai Mountains petroglyphs, where you can feel the grandeur of nature and human history, and the cultural landscape of the Orkhon Valley, where you can see the traditions of nomads who are basically on the move, you can also try horseback riding on the vast grasslands, enjoy the expansive grasslands and beautiful starry skies, or take a short trip to the Gobi Desert, the largest in Asia. The possibilities are endless.

Why not enjoy a tailor-made extraordinary journey just for you?

Cash, Cards, and Currency Exchange
The currency of Mongolia is the Tugrik. At airports and banks or hotels in Ulaanbaatar, you can exchange money or withdraw cash from ATMs. However, in rural cities, ATMs are scarce, and exchanging Japanese yen can be difficult. If you have US dollars, there are more places to exchange them, so it might be a good idea to bring some with you on your trip.
Credit cards are often usable in Ulaanbaatar, but it can be difficult to use them in rural cities.
Tips
There is no tipping custom in Mongolia. However, gratuities for guides and porter tips are becoming more common, and they are appreciated when you receive good service.
Safety
Mongolia is considered a relatively safe country globally. However, with the relaxation of restrictions implemented as part of COVID-19 measures, there has been an increasing trend in crime recognition numbers in recent years. Crime is concentrated in urban areas, with about 70% of all crimes occurring in the capital, Ulaanbaatar, where approximately half of Mongolia's total population (about 3.4 million) resides.

Pickpocketing targeting tourists also occurs, so be sure to take proper security measures.
Clothing
It is relatively cooler than Japan, especially in the mornings and evenings. The sunlight is also strong, so it might be a good idea to have sunglasses and a hat throughout the year.
In the summer (June to September), light long-sleeve layering is recommended. Since it can suddenly get cold in the mornings and evenings, it's good to have at least one thick jacket. For footwear, comfortable sneakers are recommended rather than sandals. If you plan to go horseback riding, shoes with flat soles are recommended.
In the winter (October to May), it's recommended to layer with sweaters and fleeces for easy adjustment. For outerwear, ski jackets or thick down jackets are preferable. Tights that can be worn under pants are also necessary. It's advisable to prepare to minimize skin exposure with hats and scarves. For footwear, shoes or boots that cover the ankles are recommended.
Things to Bring
A multi-plug, regular medication, a mobile battery, travel insurance, masks (for air pollution), and if horseback riding, head protection and protectors (as there is no culture of wearing helmets while riding in Mongolia)
Visa Requirements and Arrangements
As of July 2023, the Mongolian government exempts visa requirements for stays of up to 30 days for holders of Japanese passports. For stays exceeding 30 days, it is necessary to obtain a visa for long-term stays in advance.
Required Vaccinations
There are no specific vaccination requirements upon entry.
Things to note during your stay
In Mongolia, photography is prohibited in some public facilities (military facilities, thermal power plants, inside and near stations) for anti-terrorism reasons. When taking photos in crowded areas like ger settlements, markets, or inside stations, be considerate not to offend the emotions of residents or passersby.
Photography may be prohibited in places like art galleries, museums, and cultural facilities, so please be cautious at each location.
