Japan PR: Indians Can Apply for Permanent Residency

Japan PR: Indians Can Apply for Permanent Residency

Indians looking to live in Japan permanently can apply for permanent residency.

This allows them to stay in Japan indefinitely, change jobs freely, and get easier access to financial services.

To apply, you need to meet specific requirements.

The general path requires 10 years of continuous stay, but skilled workers can apply sooner based on a point system.

You'll need to gather documents, pay a fee, and submit your application to the local Immigration Bureau.

Once approved, you can enjoy your new life, but must stay in Japan at least six months every year and pay taxes.
