Anyone actually managed to get a marriage visa? I've heard japanese people usually cheat, so i doubt people manage to long distance date a japanese person till they get married... or could you just sign the papers to legally be married, move to japan and when youre financially better off, you can do the whole wedding stuff? asking since im curious, im not big on marriage, but japan would be a huge upgrade from my country, as it is for many others and i think finding a job in japan as an foreign accountant (thats what im studying to become rn) wont be easy at all and i also heard its a really hard process with visas which usually also lowers your chances of finding a job

I'm currently studying Japanese and enrolling in a trade school to learn Information Technology. I'm hoping to apply for a working visa after around 2 years once graduate and have a good basic understanding of Japanese. Is this a good plan and would I be able to find a job in IT in Japan?

Question if you get a 5 year visa for work do you gotta renew it after 5 years OR every 3 months like a “normal” working visa?

So I'm in a relationship with a girl from Japan going to university down here in America. We are aware of long distance relationships, but what if I want to move to Japan to be with her until we figure things out after she moves back, graduates, & gets her degree? I plan on opening a small business here where I live, and I did plan on considering building a small business in Japan as well. Would that make things easier? I have found zero information on this. I'm just trying to figure out how we can make things work together in person.

Hi, I'm lwhnhl and I am 22 years old, almost 23, and I am looking to go to japan in 2025 but, if i don't reach the amount of savings that I need, I'll probably move in april 2026. I did study a vocational degree in my country and would like to apply to a university degree but I am afraid to start the university at 28 years old and finished at 33 years old to start looking for work applications. What are your thoughts about that? Do you think it's still possible to start at that age? And my last question Where can I found university's in japan that impart social media bachelor's degree or something related to Audiovisual. In my country it's named communicación audiovisual. My ultimate goal is to leave in Japan but we never know

Thank you for making this video!
One of my main reasons to move to Japan is safety, and the beautiful landscapes that are there.
Plus, I want to be immersed in a different culture.

Thank you so much for this information

I just got back from Japan and I'm so inlove lol.. I wanna do a business importing product from Japan to Canada. Do I need to apply for special visa?

I going to some how get there for high school and I'm learning Japanese so I can.

I am currently 15 and I have absolutely no idea how any of this adult stuff works but it has been my dream plan to move to japan when im about 20. I am currently learning Japanese and plan on getting a job and saving money but I dont know if that is enough. I am starting to feel discouraged because I dont know if im putting all of this effort and energy into this goal if I am doing something wrong or if i simply wont be able to move there and live there. I am not good in school and im not going to college so is that something i should be worried about getting in the way? Is there other possible ways to be accepted to live there without education related things? I have a few talents and I do plan on getting a job/career when I move there if its even possible?? Someone please help me out 🤣

I want to become a Japanese citizen. But they won't have me becasue they are racist, which makes me want it even more !

i want to open a bakery someday so i plan on going to a college there thag has dorming and have a few bakery part time jobs to save up, i then once college is finished plan on continuing part time work while renting an apartment and then once i’ve saved enough i plan on finally opening a bakery :)

I love the culture, and Japanese Tea Gardens.

If you are a native English speaker with bachelor's degree and don't mind working as an English teacher, look for an English-speaking share house or a guest house. There is one in Osaka: Osaka English House. They have English speaking staff who can help you. Or if you're not sure about moving to Japan but still want some experience living in Japan, look up "worldpackers".

Thx for video. Is it possible to live in Japan but work in other country? (Working on ships month/month).

And another doubt: if we want to buy an apartment??

Hi! Do you know how to do all this but relaten with working as a Doctor? I’ve been looking for these information, but it’s kinda difficult…

mz only reasons whz to live in japan
1.anime
2.noodles
3.bullet trains

So is, "I don't want to live in North America anymore", a VALID reason as to why I want to stay in japan? If it is then can someone please explain to me how that would affect my visa...

Found a house for sell for $42,000 USD, I just looking not going to move until 2030. Need to save up money first.

Does an investor visa exist? I have a medium sized buisness in the states and could invest invest in japan if its needed to live there.

Do you still offer advice on moving to Japan? Also, out of curiosity, is it ok for me to ask where you are from?

What would you do if you want to stay there longer. Like 10 years or so?

would it be difficult to find a job in 3D modeler/character artist in Japan?

what if i just want to move there no reason like employment or education, i just wanna live there because it’s a nice country

Wait… my dad is not from sweden but he came here on a tourist visa and now he lives here and can come to sweden whenever he wants because he became a citizen, is that so in japan too?

how hard do you think it is to get a software/it job in japan with N3/N2 japanese, as a new grad (assuming i have a good portfolio.) also, how early in my final semester should i begin applying for jobs (assuming i graduate in march)
thanks!

This is extremely informative and helpful!! Im rly thankful 🙏🏻🙆🏻‍♀️

That was super helpful. Thanks!

Thank you 🌺❤️

I have to say that this is the most detailed and informative video I have ever watched while preparing to move to Japan! Thank you for going step by step and explaining things as well as providing resources. I have like a huge wait has been taken off because you’ve written everything out so clear!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!🙏🏽👍🏽🥳

I have one more year and i will finish IT university and i want to get a job there.Can you recommend me how to find a job.

I'm surprised you didn't mention setting up a bank account :O

I’m a graphic designer and illustrator and I’m currently studying the language. Im probably an N4 at the intermediate level. Im hoping to get a job in Japan in my field as an art director or similar in a few years. Are there opportunities for people in these fields with less than an N2?

What I noticed in my own research is that many of these programs mentioned are geared toward younger people. I think the age cap is 25-29.
Do you know of any programs or internships that do not have such age restrictions? I am between a rock and a hard place. In about 4 years I will be eligible to take early retirement from my employer. I'm currently 43. I think I might already have some limitations for job prospects in Japan at this age. By waiting until I am 47, I can only foresee more limitations. And if I were to wait for full retirement at 52, I don't think I would be able to find a job at all. Any advice or suggestions for program suited for middle-aged people and older would be greatly appreciated.

Good stuff. 👍
