The blazar PKS 0402-362 (RA: 04h02m02.5994s, Dec: -36d13m11.947s) is being monitored by the TANAMI project (http://pulsar.sternwarte.uni-erlangen.de/tanami/) in NIR with the REM telescope (http://www.rem.inaf.it) since February 2011. A Gamma-ray flare has been detected by Fermi-LAT (ATel #3655) on 2011-09-22 (JD 55827): Swift follow-up is reported in ATel #3659. We recorded J=15.60 (+/-0.17) on 2011-09-21, UT 09:18 (MJD 55825.38) pratically simultaneous with the Gamma-ray flare, using a sequence of 4 comparison stars taken from the 2MASS for differential photometry.
