Entry-exit management of foreigners

Japan's administrative organ in charge of exit and entry administration is the Exit and Entry Administration. The Immigration Bureau is mainly responsible for the entry inspection, residence activities and re-entry procedures of foreigners, and accepts, expels and treats those who violate the entry and exit laws as refugees.

The Exit-Entry Administration is located in the Ministry of Justice. Exit-entry administrations have been established in eight cities including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and Sapporo, with four sub-bureaus and 10 1 offices. In foreign countries, embassies and consulates abroad are responsible for entry and exit visa affairs. All ports of entry have immigration inspectors, who are responsible for checking entry visas and certificates and determining the duration and qualification of residence. Japan's visa affairs are the responsibility of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the entry-exit administration is the responsibility of the Minister of Justice. The two provinces hold regular joint meetings, and individual visa issues must be decided by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Justice through consultation.

Generally, it is a long-term residence visa, employment visa, etc. Need to review in advance, most of them should be reviewed in advance by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Justice, and the embassies and consulates abroad should submit them to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Justice. Then the foreign minister raised the issue with the Minister of Justice. After the Immigration Bureau of the Ministry of Justice knows the real purpose of entry through various channels, the Minister of Justice will give the Minister of Foreign Affairs an opinion on whether to issue a visa. Therefore, it takes quite a long time for this kind of visa to be issued from application. The Japanese embassy in China is responsible for people outside the consular section of its consulate in China to apply for visas to Japan. The Japanese Consulate in China is responsible for the application of visas to Japan by its domestic people. The time required for a visa is generally 8- 10 days. 195 1 year, Japan promulgated the first entry-exit management law, namely the Entry-Exit Management Order, and the Alien Registration Law was promulgated the following year. 1982 The Alien Landing Law was promulgated, and the Exit-Entry Management Order was revised again, and it was changed into the Exit-Entry Management and Refugee Recognition Law, and the revised bill was implemented in 1990. The main contents of this law are divided into foreigners' entry, residence, exit, deportation, Japanese going abroad and returning home. The entry management system implemented by the Japanese government, like most countries, issues different entry visas to different immigrants. Different residence qualifications are generally expressed by different kinds of visas or notes. The types of visas in Japan are expressed in Arabic letters, ranging from 4- 1- 1 to gF to 4- 1- 16. For example, if you go to Japan for sightseeing or visit relatives and friends, the residence qualification is 4-1-4; The residence qualification for international students is 4- 1L-6l. Those who go to Japan to engage in scientific research and teaching activities have a residence qualification of 4- 1-7 and so on. Among them, 4- 1- 16 is divided into 1, 2 and 3, and the residence qualification is divided into four categories: ordinary residence qualification, intermediate residence qualification, advanced residence qualification and special residence qualification. When Japanese embassies and consulates abroad issue entry visas, they usually indicate the residence qualification number directly below the visa. When entering Japan, the immigration inspection officer stamped the passport with the seal of "permission to land" and also indicated the residence qualification number to further confirm the identity of the entrant.
