Pets are allowed in OIST accommodation, within reason. No horses or wolfpacks, for example.
Note: We strongly recommend that you contact us for information about any medications you may be required to import (e.g. barbiturates for epilepsy, or insulin and syringes in the airplane). Japan has very restrictive laws on drug and medicine importation. Most medicines can be sourced locally but under different names, and we can assist in ensuring that the correct medications are available for you. If this may be an issue, please contact us immediately.
If you bring any medications, please contact to our Health Center: health@oist.jp
(Assistance with inbound visas is available, but OIST regrets that we are unable to provide flights or accommodation for family members staying as guests in Okinawa.)
