Business Manager VISA → Permanent residence in Japan

 Getting a Permanent Residence from a Business Manager Visa

 Advantages of “getting permanent residence” from business manager visa

Business Manager visas have a maximum stay of 5 years. Therefore, when borrowing business funds from a bank, the stability of residence is considered to be lacking, and it is not possible to borrow a sufficient amount of money or it is difficult to set a long-term repayment date. However, by acquiring permanent residence, the period of residence becomes indefinite, and it works for banking transactions as stability of the period of residence is improved.

In addition, the permanent resident’s spouse and the permanent resident’s child’s residence status become “the permanent resident’s spouse, etc.”, so there are no restrictions on working and part-time jobs, and the freedom of activities in Japan will be improved.

 Requirements for Permanent Resident from Business Visas

When aiming to obtain permanent residence from a business management visa, the Immigration Bureau reviews the company’s business performance, tax obligations, social insurance obligations, etc.

In practice, it is possible to apply for permanent residence within a minimum of 2-3 years from acquisition of a management visa (as long as the period of residence is 3 years) on the premise that the requirements for permanent residence other than the above are met.

The examination period may take 6 to 10 months, so it may be necessary to renew your current status of residence during the application.

Attention: Social insurance payments

In the future, if you wish to change from a business management visa to permanent residence, it is essential to fulfill your tax payment and social insurance obligations. In the Permanent Residence Examination, the Immigration Bureau examines not only whether payment is being made, but also the payment deadline. Payment is confirmed for at least one year from the application.

There are many businesses that do not subscribe to social insurance as small businesses, but legally, corporations are obliged to subscribe to social insurance.

Even if you later subscribe to social insurance and pay the premium, you may not be granted permanent residence as you do not keep the deadline.
If you want to obtain permanent residence, you should debit the account so that you do not forget to pay the social security fee.
