Japanese ability is important, but visa eligibility also depends on job duties and supporting documents.

Planning to work in Japan?

JLPT N2-level Japanese ability is a strong advantage when working in Japan. However, visa approval does not depend only on Japanese ability. Your education, work experience, job duties, salary, employment contract, and employer documents are also important.

If you are planning to work in Japan, change jobs, apply for a Specified Skilled Worker visa, or change from student status to a work visa, you can book a 60-minute paid consultation.
