With this visa, you will be able to&nbsp;<strong>move to Japan<\/strong>&nbsp;and run your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to be granted this type of visa, you will have to set up a business and hire employees. &nbsp;Then, you will need to effectuate all the arrangements so that the company can start its activities immediately after receiving the visa. Owning a company can be a good reason to&nbsp;<strong>immigrate to Japan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The working visa for a business manager is the category foreign nationals who will run a business will be required to apply for. It can be issued for different periods of time: 5 years, 3 years, 1 year or less (for only 4 months or 3 months).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following documents are required for a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/set-up-a-branch-in-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">business<\/a><\/strong> manager visa:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Passport;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Filled-in application form; (some foreign nationals such as those from Russia or Georgia are asked to provide two application forms);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Photograph;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Certificate of eligibility;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For Chinese applicants: copy of the Chinese family register; the Chinese residence certificate or the temporary residence permit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The needed documents may differ according to the applicant\u2019s nationality. This is why we suggest that investors apply for the business manager visa with our help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The usual visa processing time can be 5 working days and the Certificate of Eligibility can be applied for in advance in some cases. The Certificate is issued by a regional immigration authority and certifies that the applicant complies with the conditions to enter Japan, namely that the stated activity for the visa purpose is truthful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">company registration advisors in Japan<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;can help you with the entire process of obtaining the&nbsp;<strong>investor\/business manager visa<\/strong>&nbsp;in the country.

However, for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/tax-minimization-in-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">taxation purposes<\/a><\/strong>, a branch is considered a permanent establishment and it is taxed the same way as a subsidiary (that is, a locally registered company).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investors who wish to <strong>immigrate to Japan<\/strong>, based on business creation, can see below the most important taxes applicable to corporations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>the corporate income tax rate of 23.2%, up to 30-34% including the local taxes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>consumption tax (the equivalent of the VAT) of 10% or at two reduced rates of 0% or 8%; a national tax and a local tax are combined to amount to these values;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>social security contributions by the employer in amount of about 16.23%;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Japan has signed approximately 80 <a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/japan-us-double-tax-treaty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>double income tax treaties<\/strong><\/a>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a real property tax, a transfer tax, and stamp duty apply, among other types of taxes that apply to companies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Our partner <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/accountant-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accountants in Japan<\/a><\/strong> can answer your questions concerning taxation, tax compliance, and the annual accounting and reporting mandatory filing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/starting-a-business-in-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">company registration in Japan<\/a><\/strong>, and how you can obtain a business visa, our team will assist you based on your particulars (the industry you are investing in, your background, and other criteria).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"extending-a-business-in-japan\"><\/span><strong>Extending a business in Japan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wish to extend your business and&nbsp;<strong>relocate in Japan<\/strong>, you can do so by&nbsp;<strong>setting up a<\/strong>&nbsp;branch or representative&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.companyformationjapan.com\/company-incorporation-japan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>company in Japan<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/set-up-a-branch-in-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">open a branch office in Japan<\/a><\/strong>, you should:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Be issued an affidavit certified by the Embassy or Consulate of Japan from the parent company&#8217;s country.

It can be a first step before the company <strong>relocates to Japan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides, a representative office in Japan can hire employees in Japan and does not have to be registered with legal bodies such as the Legal Affairs Bureau.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"move-to-japan-for-work-purposes\"><\/span><strong>Move to Japan for work purposes<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign citizens who want to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/workforce-in-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">work in Japan<\/a><\/strong> have to obtain a special working visa to do so. It is not allowed to perform paid activities under a tourist visa in this country. Employment can be one of the reasons foreign nationals choose to\u00a0<strong>immigrate to Japan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Japan, there are around 12 types of working visas, every one of them enabling the holder to work only in a certain professional field, such as an instructor, an engineer, or an entertainer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foreign professionals also have the option to apply for a highly skilled professional visa, which allows them to reside in the country and to be joined by their family members. The validity of this visa is for five years, and the dependent spouse or children may also join the visa holder for the same period (or for three years, or one year).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The required visa application documents differ based on the chosen visa. For relocation purposes, it is understood that a foreign national will intend to apply for a work or long-term stay visa, one that will allow the holder to remain for over 90 days in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we highlight the main steps foreign nationals who wish to <strong>relocate to Japan<\/strong> will need to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol style=\"list-style-type:1\">\n<li>Secure the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/personnel-relocation-to-japan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">employment opportunity<\/a><\/strong> (or business opportunity when applying for the business visa);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prepare the visa documents: these include both the applicant\u2019s personal documents (passport, photograph, criminal record as needed), and the visa-specific documents (the employment promise or agreement, the business investment, proof of sufficient funds, etc.);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apply for the visa at the Japanese Embassy or Consulate in your country of residence;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wait for your visa to be examined; during this step, the authorities will thoroughly examine compliance with the eligibility criteria;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If the visa is approved, the applicant is issued his passport with the visa included; he will then need to travel to Japan within the next three months.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"other-reasons-to-relocate-to-japan\"><\/span><strong>Other reasons to relocate to Japan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/companyformationjapan.com\/move-to-japan-from-usa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Foreign nationals<\/a><\/strong> are not conditioned to securing employment or <strong>setting up a company in Japan<\/strong> in order to be able to relocate here for temporary purposes.
