♦Immigration
A visa issued by a Japanese embassy or consulate is required to enter Japan. In order to obtain a visa, you should submit an application with the required documents. If you plan to be in Japan longer than the period of a short stay (15 days or 90 days), you must attach an authorization certificate issued by the Immigration Bureau to the visa application form. In the case of a short stay (15 days or 90 days), citizens of countries with which Japan has a visa exemption agreement can enter Japan without a visa.
Accordingly, a foreigner belonging to a foreign company with no base in Japan must enter the country as a short-stay visitor, apply for a short-stay certificate, return to his/her country and reenter in the capacity of a short-stay visitor. During the short stay, it is common to rent an office and arrange for equipment and supplies for the office.
People from countries that have no visa exemption agreement with Japan must obtain a short-stay visa at a Japanese consulate in order to enter Japan.
