🇯🇵 Visas et immigration — Japan

Détails du visa

Japan offers a Business Manager visa (経営・管理ビザ) for foreign entrepreneurs who establish and manage a company in Japan. Key requirements include a physical office, a minimum investment of JPY 5 million or the employment of at least two full-time residents, and a viable business plan. The visa is typically granted for one year initially and can be renewed. Japan introduced a digital nomad visa in 2024 for remote workers earning above JPY 10 million annually, valid for up to six months. The Highly Skilled Professional (HSP) visa uses a points-based system and offers a fast track to permanent residency (as little as one year for 80+ points). There is no golden visa program, but significant investors may qualify under the Business Manager or HSP categories.
