Want to get a Japanese study visa smoothly? You should know these key points!

Applying for a study visa in Japan is a complicated process, which requires the applicant to make full preparations and pay attention to details. This article will introduce you to several key points to help you better understand the process and requirements of applying for a study visa in Japan.

Japanese ability matching

Japanese visa officers now strictly examine the matching degree between the applicant's Japanese class certificate and the actual ability. It is suggested to take the Japanese proficiency test to improve the credibility and reduce the possibility of being randomly selected.

Clarify the motivation of studying abroad

Japan attaches importance to the authenticity of the purpose of studying abroad. Applicants who are older or have certain social experience should be well-founded when explaining their motivation to study abroad. If they change majors in the future, the reasons should be fully justified.

Handling precautions

Applicants need to apply in person at the embassy or consulate or designated institution. All materials are valid for 3 months and will not be returned after application. The guarantor is the same as the inviter, and it is not necessary to submit the same materials repeatedly. The processing time of individual visa application is working day 14:00- 16:30.

Application material

The application materials include: the original certificate of residence qualification in China, the reason for studying abroad (describing the purpose and subject in detail), my resume (details from primary school to now), the letter of commitment (provided by the Japanese Embassy, which needs to be signed or sealed), the application form for Japanese entry visa (provided by the Japanese Embassy in China) and the list of relatives (provided by the Japanese Embassy in China).
