„Die sechsfache Erhöhung der Kapitalanforderungen für Japans Geschäftsvisa ist völlig irrational“ – Beamte behaupten, dass dies getan werden muss, um Visabetrug zu stoppen, sie liefern jedoch keine Beweise dafür, dass es sich um ein weit verbreitetes Problem handelt, und sie haben mit Standards reagiert, die 96 % der legitimen ausländischen Unternehmen nicht erfüllen können

This is a shitshow
It never ceases to amaze me how Japan can look at any given economic or immigration problem and find the worst possible legislation to remedy it.
They are so damn efficient in nearly everything else. Even their state-run railways are efficient… Why must finance and immigration be where they fail so hard?
Wouldn’t it be a lot simpler to just cancel that visa category entirely? It would save a lot of pissing about.
How about the 20 fold increase in a PR application? Straight up extortion.
We all knew this was going to happen lmao. It’s hard to believe this wasn’t the plan all along. If this is the route the country wants to take then so be it.
I know at least 5 different people that used the business manager visa to get visas and eventually PR. It was 100% being abused and there are mountains of evidence. This article is pushing a false narrative.
let them learn.
It’s so tough. I just increased my company capital to ¥20mil to comply with the new changes, and the process was so complicated and expensive.
And now I have to hire a full time Japanese staff member too. I don’t need any more staff and it’s another added unnecessary cost to my business. Which is a completely healthy, profitable, law abiding, tax paying business for the last 7 years.
This coupled with the higher cost of living, high pension costs for companies, and weak yen, just make it all seem so unfair.
I can’t even apply for PR anymore until I comply with these new rules.
I am praying they walk these changes back soon because the damage it is causing to the business sector is quite serious.
