I. Duration of study visa in Japan
1, University
If you successfully enter the university, the Immigration Bureau will issue a visa for four years and three months at a time. Because the school is a guarantee, even if you don't have sex for four years at a time, you can get a "guarantee visa" for four years. But once you drop out of school or drop out of school, your visa will be invalid and you can't continue to live in Japan.
2. University
The visa benchmark of colleges and universities is basically the same, that is, visas are issued according to the number of years of study. Generally speaking, the monk course (master's degree) is 2-3 years, so the Admissions Bureau will give students a visa for 2 years and 3 months at the beginning, and if they graduate in three years, they will be renewed according to the standard of re-entry in universities.
The doctoral program is usually 3-5 years, so it starts with 3 years and 3 months. If you continue to study, the only difference is that it is basically impossible to graduate from the doctoral program in three years, so you need to continue studying.
The auditor's visa is 1 year and 3 months, because the auditor's course life is only one year. If you are not accepted, you can only change your visa or return to China.
3. Language school
Language schools have four enrollment periods a year, and students born in 1 month have the shortest visa, which is only 1 year for three months, and cannot be renewed after that; Born in April is two years, but it is also signed once a year. In the second year, you need to pay tuition before continuing. Those born in July are 1 year for 9 months, and the renewal is the same as that born in April; 1 month The date of birth is 1 year and a half, and the renewal is the same as 1 month and July.
Second, the time limit for the use of visas.
1, retention period
The duration of the visa refers to the time allowed for the holder to stay after entering the country. The difference between it and the visa validity period is that the visa validity period refers to the use period of the visa, that is, the holder can enter and leave the country within the specified time. If a country's entry-exit visa is valid for 3 months and the stay time is 15 days, the visa can enter or leave the country on any day within 3 months from the date of issuance, but the holder can only stay in the country for 15 days from the date of entry to the date of exit.
2. Validity period
The validity period of a visa refers to the time period during which the holder is allowed to enter the country from the date of issuance of the visa. After this time period, the visa will be invalid. Generally, countries issue entry visas valid for 3 months, while some countries issue entry visas valid for 1 month. Some countries have strict restrictions on the validity of visas, such as Germany, which only issues visas according to the date of application. The validity of transit visas is generally short.
3. Effective time
In addition to the validity period and stay period, the visa also stipulates the number of valid times. Generally, it is divided into one valid visa, two valid visas and multiple valid visas. The number of times a visa is valid means that once it is used within the validity period, it will be invalid. Two valid visas, that is, you can use them twice within the validity period of the visa. Multiple valid visas, that is, within the validity period of the visa, the holder can enter and leave its territory multiple times.
3. How to renew the Japanese study visa?
