      I think a small increase is fair to account for inflation, but not 20x lol.

      Also this is ironically the first time I’ve read an English NHK news article. What the fuck are the “ ___ yen, or about __ dollars“, spread out numerous times throughout the article

    2. Does that go for anyone regardless of what type of visas they’re staying with? whether that’s nomad visas or student visas to work visas and spousal visas

    3. Don’t most developed countries charge similar rates? I know my country charges several times more than this.

      I wonder if this will apply to those with PR applications already in…

    5. Damn, the new Prime Minister really going full Trump like the trumpet and fangirl she is

    6. Totally reasonable to pay a fee like this if you’re a digital nomad enjoying the fruits of their economy. It’s now $1,200 to move and get residency in Japan.

    7. For those wondering, this will not affect applications that are submitted before October 1st and accepted after

      Question 11 of the QA on the MOJ website

    8. Good thing is, you only pay this once you are approved. Application by itself is free. Most of the other countries I know will charge you at the time of application.
      20man for a PR that does not require renewal… is a good deal, no?

    9. who writes the USD conversion in an article when in a week time it’s going to be off … I don’t follow this website but is it a news website for Americans to be usd focused?

    10. It’s alright guys, 2 years of processing time at Shinagawa, 24 months gives you time to save up the amount.
      Although I’m guessing the application volume will drop sharply.

    11. Fuck that’s way earlier than I expected. I was thinking April 2027. I was just debating applying this summer or waiting until just after October 1st so my husband would have over 3 years at the same company on record but I guess I need to apply quickly now and probably get rejected again🙄

      I got mine back in April. I applied in November before any of the news of the changes in requirements and fees were announced, and went from being fine with the possibility of being rejected to being super stressed about it. I feel terrible for anyone who has to deal with the changes.

      If that money would actually be used helping integration of non citizens, it would be more accepted, but in reality it’s just a way to milk foreign residents.

      coming from a third world country i’m glad that most my problems i have now can be classified as first world issues and 200k jpy is still very much affordable for me to not have to go back to the so called third world shithole

      I think Japan but their current government is too much. I’ll see you guys when that party has lost power.

    16. You know that’s a jump in price but the original being $60ish is kinda wild. 1.2k isn’t the worst.
