Student visa

Studying abroad visa is one of the ways that most young people choose. Japan's high-quality educational resources attract a large number of international students every year.

Advantages: the application threshold is low. From elementary school to university, young people of all ages can apply for a visa to study in Japan and live in Japan.

Disadvantages: since it is a study visa, it means that the Japanese government only allows you to "study abroad" in Japan and cannot engage in formal work. You can only do odd jobs as part-time jobs at most.

2. Skills visa

The so-called skill visa means that you have certain professional skills and can complete a certain job. Such as chefs, architects, etc. Most of the work visas we often talk about are skill visas.

Advantages: You don't need to spend money on studying abroad, and you can earn money by working in Japan.

Disadvantages: You need to have employment opportunities in regular Japanese companies to get a visa.

If you don't have formal employment, you can get job skills and get a visa through internships and training in Japanese companies.

Advantages: Like a skill visa, you don't need to study abroad, and you can earn income during your internship.

Disadvantages: the training stage is like an intern in China. Although there is a salary, it is far below the normal level.

4. Technology, humanistic knowledge and international business visa

This seemingly tall name is a combination of technical visa, humanistic knowledge and international business visa.

Advantages: If Japanese students want to stay and work in Japan after graduation, most of them will sign this visa. You can enter the society like the Japanese and get the same salary and working environment.

Disadvantages: This visa has many restrictions on the scope of employment. For example, liberal arts graduates cannot engage in IT industry, and science graduates cannot engage in translation, secretarial and other occupations.
