Points for obtaining a Business Manager Visa
■ Business is required to have appropriateness, stability and continuity.
If you want to hire an employee, you need to take out labor insurance and social insurance, and if your business is required permission, you need to obtain permission.
In addition, when you start a new business, you must create a concrete and detailed business plan to prove the stability and continuity of your business.
■The capital for establishing a company is at least 5 million yen.
The applicant does not necessarily have to contribute, but it is necessary to clarify the source of the investment and the remittance route (copy of bank account passbook, remittance statement, etc.).
■ If you want to get a Business Manager Visa for 2 people or more who are in the same company, you must have a business scale, work volume, sales, and number of employees that all match those visas.
■ When leasing a business office, the purpose of use shall be the business name of the contractor, such as "business", "store", "office", etc., and the purpose of the business is clarified.
■ Non-residents may not be able to open a bank account, so it is also necessary to secure Japanese collaborators.
