How long does it take to get a permanent visa for Japan?

Living in Japan for 10 years or more (at least 183 days in one year) or working for 5 years or more (formally taking office and paying annuity social security).

Basic conditions for applying for a permanent visa in Japan:

1. There has been no bad behavior in Japan.

2. Have the economic or financial ability to support their own lives.

3. Do what is in Japan's interest.

In addition to the above three points, it should be added that if the applicant is Japanese or married to a permanent resident, the first and second points can be ignored.

In principle, you can apply for a permanent residence visa if you have lived in Japan for more than 10 years, but it should also be decided according to the specific circumstances of the applicant. For example, if you live in Japan for 10 years, it will take more than 5 years to apply for a permanent residence visa. For permanent residents, after obtaining a permanent residence visa, they need to live in Japan for more than five years before they are eligible to apply for a permanent residence visa.

In addition, the Immigration Law also stipulates the maximum period of residence qualification at present, that is to say, you can only apply for a permanent residence visa after obtaining a three-year visa, but you can't say that you can apply for a permanent residence visa if you have the above application conditions. You should also judge whether you can apply for a permanent residence visa according to the specific situation of the applicant. If the customer holds a three-year visa now, it basically meets the above conditions. In the specific application, you should submit the tax payment certificate for the first three years. In addition, if there is a guarantor, it is best to submit the income certificate of the guarantor together.

It is also very important to prepare a statement of reasons that can fully explain the necessity of applying for a permanent visa. In the reason book, you should state the reasons for applying for a permanent residence visa, and you should also emphasize your determination to apply for a permanent residence visa. In addition, it is also important to prepare some additional materials that can prove the cause book.

Applying for a permanent visa in Japan mainly focuses on the following aspects.

Good consciousness and style-no criminal record, no tax evasion.

Have a fixed source of income or assets-be able to support yourself.

Living in Japan for more than a certain period of time-there are many classifications, and the two most important ones are: one is to marry a Japanese and live in Japan for more than three years. There is another one who has lived in Japan for more than 10 years.

The existing qualifications for studying in Japan are the longest-for example, a technical visa for 3 years and a humanities visa for 3 years.

Guarantor-this is the most difficult and necessary. Guarantors can only be Japanese or foreigners who already have permanent residency in Japan. Guarantors need to be jointly and severally liable for the economy and laws of the insured, but as long as they are linked to money, Japanese people generally will not easily become guarantors of others except their own children.
