Change of "Status of Residence" (VISA change)

"Status of Residence" is a legal status for a foreign national who is legally staying in Japan. Immigration Act defines various "Status of Residence", and few status are defined by special laws.


The original status is usually decided at a port of entry to Japan. But, if, for instance because of Marriage, Job change, etc, a foreign national might fulfill the requirements of another status, he/she may be able to apply for change of "Status of Residence".


This procedure is often called "VISA change", etc. However, a foreign national stays in Japan based on "Status of Residence" and its "Period of Stay", therefore "change of "Status of Residence"" is more proper way to express the procedure.
