Why You Need a Japan VPN
Connecting through a server in Japan routes your traffic via a local exit: sites and services aimed at that region tend to load more smoothly, and on untrusted networks like public Wi-Fi your connection is encrypted, reducing the risk of your traffic being snooped on. Whether a specific site is reachable still depends on that site's own access policy — we can't guarantee it.
If you need a Japanese IP address, HZVPN gives you plenty of choice: Japan currently has 41 VPN servers, second only to the United States. One is in the Free tier, 22 are VIP and 18 are SVIP, so members have an especially wide pick of Japanese servers.
Common uses include playing on Japanese game servers, checking local prices on Japanese shopping and second-hand sites, and opening public pages and campaigns that are limited to visitors in Japan. People who study or work in Japan also use it while away to sign in to Japanese banking and mobile accounts. Japan sits close to South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong, so it is within easy reach from most of East Asia. If a Japanese server is busy or under maintenance, South Korea or Taiwan make good alternatives.
HZVPN currently has 41 VPN servers in Japan — No. 2 of 43 countries and regions by server count, and 31% of all servers in Asia Pacific. If the Japan servers are temporarily unavailable, you can switch to nearby South Korea, Taiwan or Hong Kong.
