=======================================================

Please check if you need a visa for your visit.
We can prepare an invitation letter and documents
required for the visa application.
The application should be made early, since it 
may take a month to get it in some cases.

If you need visa, please provide ( Yamaguchi <yamag@cns.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp> )
