Japan amended manager visa rules last year
Japan has amended the rules for business manager visa last year. With this, the minimum capital requirement for applicants has been increased from Rs 5 million to Rs 30 million. This change was made because this visa system was being misused for migration purposes. These decisions were taken after the investigation in which alleged shell companies were exposed.
According to the KPMG report, applicants or full-time employees are now required to have proficiency in the Japanese language. It should be around JLPT N2 level. Recently, there has been a huge decline of 96 percent in business manager visa applications in Japan. Also, about 60 thousand people have appealed to review this new rule. Kimi Onoda said that the purpose of this new rule is to reduce the misuse of migration. This has gone away to a great extent.
