Our office has launched an official YouTube channel.

Channel: @kaneko-gyosei

In videos of around sixty seconds, we explain the points where residence status procedures most often go wrong. Here are a few of the videos already published.

  • “Status of residence” is not a “visa” | Living in Japan, in 60 seconds (in English)
  • How to bring your family to Japan | Dependent visa basics (in Japanese)
  • A renewal is never “just paperwork” | Five reasons renewals get denied (in Japanese)

Most videos are currently narrated in Japanese, and we are adding Chinese and English versions as we go. The main videos can also be watched directly on the top page of this website.

The videos are there to give you the overall picture of how the system works. What is possible in practice depends on your own circumstances, so please feel free to contact us when you are preparing an application (first 60 minutes free).
