There are three main types of visas for immigrating to Japan through work visas, namely highly qualified personnel visas, employment visas, and specific skills visas derived from employment visas. Among the three types of visas, the easiest one to transfer to permanent residence was launched in 2012Highly Skilled Professional Visa. The Highly Talented Visa adopts a points system. The most basic requirements are that senior talents engaged in professional technology (science and humanities), academic research or business management must also be employed in a Japanese position with an annual income of 3 million yen (approximately HK$212,000). It’s about HK$17,000 per month, which is not a high threshold. However, there are many details in the score sheet. If you want to reach the threshold of the Highly Talented Visa, you must pay attention to the score sheet provided by the Japanese official and calculate it yourself first.
In addition to the three major thresholds of annual income, graduate school, and Japanese proficiency, everyone must consider the scope of work. Academic research requires at least a doctoral degree. Therefore, most people will focus on professional skills and corporate business management, and engage in innovation, technology, Talents in the scientific research field are more likely to obtain professional and technical personnel visas. As for business management, it is easier to pass if you work for a large and well-known company.
⚠️ Those who have a score of 70 and have lived for three consecutive years can also apply for permanent residence. However, it is said that the success rate of your own application is only 60%. The reasons for not being approved include unpaid taxes, insufficient annual income, unqualified identity guarantor, etc. Therefore, it is best to find a professional ""administrative scrivener"" to do it for you!
The employment visa is a more entry-level option, Employment visa covers 14 industries such as education, art, business, legal accounting, medical care, and research, and more people apply for the ""technology, humanities knowledge, and international business"" industry, among which overseas trade, I.T. , translators, financial accountants, all have more opportunities to hire foreigners who know Japanese (Japanese N2 level) and have relevant qualifications.
To apply for a work visa, you must be employed by a Japanese company and provide company profile, employment reason letter, job experience letter, language proficiency certificate and other information. Because the procedures are complicated, many young people under the age of 30 will first apply for a working holiday in Japan, find jobs locally and gain the trust of employers with their performance, and then apply for a work visa.
Advantages of employment visa
Japan does not have a formal investment immigration program, but the closest thing to investment immigration that has an investment component is the ""business management"" visa.
