Kosher food exists in Japan but requires a bit of research — often via a local synagogue, kosher deli, or Chabad House — and options thin out quickly outside major cities.
Chabad Houses are Jewish community centers that operate in a surprising number of cities worldwide, and many welcome travelers for a kosher meal — check chabad.org for the nearest location before you go, especially useful in destinations with otherwise limited kosher options.
Pre-packaged kosher-certified goods (look for a hechsher symbol) are increasingly available at larger international supermarkets, and self-catering with a kitchenette is a reliable backup in destinations with very limited options.
