Hello, I am traveling to Japan this January. I would like to stay for April as this coincides with the Cherry Blossom Festival and the start of some of the Japanese sports seasons.

Because I am Canadian I do not need a visa, I am allowed 90 days in Japan as long as I have a return ticket with me when I enter the country. What I am planning to do however, is to take the Ferry to Korea for a two weeks in March.

I was told by the Japanese consulate here that this will reset my 90 days which is fine. But what I am wondering is that if my round-trip ticket from Canada says I am returning in April (that would put me over the 90 day limit), would it suffice to show my ferry ticket to Korea to the immigration officials to prove that I will be leaving the country before my 90 days are up?

To be more clear, will a ferry ticket to Korea substitute for a return plane ticket back to Canada (I will still have a return ticket to Canada, but it will be for the middle of April which is about 100 days, not 90)? Thanks.
