First Q&A regarding the point system for highly skilled professionals
Posted: May 2012, 4
Q: I am currently residing in Japan with a "technical" residence status. Can I change my residence status to that of a highly skilled professional?
A: For those who are currently residing in Japan with a working status,
Apply to change your status of residence as a highly skilled professional to "Specified Activities",
Whether the content of the work corresponds to activities as a highly skilled professional,
Whether the point calculation results will reach a passing score, whether there are any problems with your current residence status, etc.
After examining the prescribed requirements, if it is found that all of them are met,
It is possible to receive permission to change the status of residence.
