If you haven't got COVID before you will surely get in in this crowded immigration line.
No Fast Track for people with QR code, only with Japanese passport and resident permit.
I entered NRT yesterday and it was quite crowded. 2 United flights arrived at around the same time (SFO and LAX). One tip - I thought I was being clever and printed out my QR codes (so I don't have to play with the phone). THEY WILL ONLY ACCEPT WHAT'S ON THE PHONE. So I would suggest opening the website as soon as you land (if you have data) to ensure a smooth process. The immigration line was about 20-25 minutes. By the time we got out our luggage was already off the belt and put by the side.
