Reiwa Travel Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takaya Shinozuka) announced that its smart and affordable travel app 'NEWT' will begin supporting four languages—English, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional/Simplified)—from Monday, April 6, 2026, and will launch services for international customers, including inbound tourists. This move signifies NEWT's full-scale entry into the inbound market and its evolution into a globally accessible travel booking service.

With this multilingual support, international customers will be able to search and book accommodations, including hotels and inns both overseas and within Japan, through NEWT in multiple languages. By expanding the target of its travel booking services, which were previously primarily offered to Japanese customers, to include international customers, NEWT aims to strengthen its response to inbound accommodation booking needs.

Furthermore, the travel concierge service, which provides end-to-end support from travel planning to booking, will also begin supporting four languages, helping customers achieve a more comfortable and satisfying travel experience without hassle. Through the multilingual support of both the service and the travel concierge, NEWT aims to provide travel services that cater to the 'desire to travel' of a wider range of customers.

■ Background of Entry into the Inbound Market

In recent years, the number of foreign visitors to Japan has been on an upward trend, leading to increased demand from overseas for accommodation facilities and travel services within Japan. However, language and information fragmentation continue to pose hurdles for planning and booking travel across countries and regions.

Until now, NEWT has provided overseas tour and overseas/domestic accommodation booking services primarily for Japanese customers. With this multilingual support, NEWT will begin offering services to international customers, strengthening its response to inbound accommodation booking needs, and by supporting both overseas and domestic accommodation bookings, it will expand its value proposition as a travel service usable regardless of country or language.

Through its entry into the inbound market, NEWT aims to be a presence that responds to the 'desire to travel' of more customers, not just within Japan, and to provide new travel experiences as a globally utilized travel service.
