Currently, Japanese government imposes strict border measures on foreign nationals who apply for new entry into Japan, and the LOC cannot issue all the necessary documents for the "short-term" visa applications. Under current regulation, "short-term" visa application requires that we need to provide all of your stay and activity plan as well as the "receiving responsible organization" details (please see the Japanese government site below). This is beyond the capacity of the conference organizers.

Since the Coronavirus situation in Japan is getting worse,
https://www.mhlw.go.jp/stf/covid-19/kokunainohasseijoukyou_00006.html
it is not likely that Japanese government will change this policy in the near future. So, we recommend that you do not plan to present in person at AMES unless the COVID-19 situation in Japan improves dramatically.
We are sorry for the situation.
The LOC can issue a letter to certify your presenter status. When things are normal, that should be sufficient to enter Japan.
