What are the ways to immigrate to Japan?

First of all, there are two situations, one is naturalization (Japanese nationality) and the other is permanent residence (green card).

1. Investment immigration

I think this is what the subject wants to ask most, so let it go first.

Now that the Japanese government has liberalized overseas investment, China people can apply for Japanese business management visas.

Let me talk about the advantages of this visa first: it is equivalent to permanent residence, and you can enjoy medical, education, insurance and other benefits in Japan. Except for not having the right to vote and to be elected, everything else is very convenient.

Disadvantages of this visa: you need to stay in Japan for 180 days every year (if you are dissatisfied, it will bring trouble to the subsequent application)

Next, how to apply for this visa:

1 Generally, China people don't have a bank account, a guarantor or a permanent residence in Japan, which is what companies need to register in Japan. At this time, Japanese institutions are needed to help. This interested friend can trust me privately.

2 With the above conditions, to start the process of registering a company, you need a registered capital of 5 million yen (that is, the company's funds are in the company account after the company is established and can be withdrawn at any time). Need to hire more than 2 Japanese employees.

Generally, you can get a business management visa in 3-6 months. The general visa is 1 with 2 to 1 with 4. In other words, to set up a company in Japan, you can get up to five permanent management visas. General down payment 1 year. After the expiration, if the company really has business activities in the first year (mainly in terms of income and tax payment), then it will add two additional years. You are eligible to apply for Japanese nationality in the fourth year. If you don't want to apply for naturalization, then continue to apply for a business administration visa (3 years). Six years later, in the seventh year, you will be eligible to apply for permanent residence.

Generally speaking, business visa is a good method. If you think you can stay in Japan for more than half a year in the future and have certain business interests, then this is a convenient and effective way.

PS: Setting up a company in Japan and using the company to buy real estate is also a disguised mode of operation. In fact, many people in China do this now.

Work visa (talent introduction)

This method has also been adopted by many China people who have been naturalized in Japan and worked in Japan for seven years. You can apply for permanent residence (green card). But now Japan has introduced the scorecard system for senior talents. Theoretically, high-tech talents can apply for permanent residence 1 year (but it seems that most people have not applied successfully-it was only implemented last year).

Three marriages

This way is the fastest way to obtain nationality, but I don't think this is the subject's concern. Generally, after six months of marriage, you can apply for naturalization. However, Japan is now very strict in this respect, and it will be more convenient to take it if you have children after you get married with Japanese (people with Japanese nationality and naturalized China people).

Finally, to sum up, since China does not recognize dual nationality, as long as it joins Japanese nationality, it must give up China nationality. Is this worth considering in the long run? So living permanently in Japan is a relatively better choice.
