Consultation / Inquiry
Tommy’s Legal Service provides consultation and application support for status of residence procedures, foreign employment, Specified Skilled Worker matters, and Registered Support Organization services.
Please choose the most suitable contact route below. Case-specific advice may require document review, such as residence cards, employment contracts, employer-side documents, or notices from Immigration.
Which contact route should I use?
The suitable route depends on whether you need a general inquiry, individual case review, or business-side consultation.
We support foreign nationals, families, employers, partner organizations, and companies accepting foreign workers in Japan.
For matters such as renewal after job change, re-application after denial, urgent deadlines, refugee-related status review, or Specified Skilled Worker acceptance, we may need to check documents before giving case-specific advice. In such cases, a paid consultation is usually the safest option.
