Long Term Resident Visa

The “long term resident visa” is a type of visa granted to the descendants of Japanese nationals (nikkei sansei, etc.), or applicants who are divorced from Japanese nationals, etc, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions.

The long term resident visa is a very strong visa, generally stronger than all of the visas based on activities (work visa etc.). Holders of this visa are permitted to engage in all types of work, with no restrictions on work type or working hours (or may choose not to work if being supported or if there are other means of supporting his/her living). Under this visa, it is possible to apply for permanent residency earlier than work visa holders.
