User Voice

  • Nguyen (30 years old, IT engineer, Vietnam)

    [Vietnamese nationals - work visa renewal]
    There was no support from the company, so I had to do the renewal procedure myself.
    All I had to do was enter my information on LINE and the documents were delivered, allowing me to submit them to the immigration office smoothly. It was very helpful.

  • Sarah (28 years old, English teacher, USA)

    [American citizen, spouse visa]
    I applied for a spouse visa to get married and start living in Japan.
    There was an English-language form available, and support was easily available via LINE, so I was able to prepare without any stress.

  • Carlos (35 years old, service industry/Philippines)

    [Philippines nationals applying for permanent residence]
    I was worried because I had heard that applying for permanent residence involves a lot of paperwork and is difficult.
    There was also a list of attachments and a submission manual, so I was able to prepare without any hesitation. It was also convenient that it was delivered in PDF format.
