Do Pakistani passport holders need a transit visa for Tokyo Haneda (HND)?

No transit visa needed

No visa needed to connect to an international flight to a third country while staying in the transit area. Leaving it needs a Japanese visa or a discretionary shore pass.

For an airside connection at Haneda Airport, Japan: one ticket, bags checked through, onward flight to another country, no immigration.

Leaving the airport during the layover

All these passports need a Japanese visa (Indians can apply for the eVISA through an accredited agency). Immigration may instead grant a discretionary shore pass of up to 72 hours to stay near the airport.

Watch out

Transferring between Narita and Haneda, or onto a domestic flight, means entering Japan, so a visa is needed.
