Last week, we welcomed four international students to our office for a 5-day internship!

During the internship, they learned about visa procedures, immigration services, and support for foreigners in Japan.

But they were not just learning from us — we also learned a lot from them!

They shared their experiences of living in Japan and discussed:

💬 Problems foreigners face in Japan
📱 How foreigners in Japan get information
🌏 Translating an English website into their native languages
📸 Creating SNS content
💡 Ideas for using our 1F space
🎤 Presenting their business ideas

For their final presentation, they came up with creative ideas !

We were impressed by their fresh perspectives and creative ideas! ✨

It was a fun and meaningful 5 days for all of us, and we are very grateful to the four students for sharing their ideas, experiences, and energy with us.

Thank you for joining us!
We hope this experience will be a great memory for you and help you in your future careers. 🌏✨

Thinking about working in Japan? There are so many visa rumors online, but which ones are actually true? Here are three major visa myths busted by our international interns at Legal Gate:

Myth: No JLPT N2 = No Work Visa 😭Fact: N2 is not strictly required for a work residence status. It entirely depends on the type of visa and the specific job you are applying for.

Myth: No job by graduation = Leave Japan immediately ✈️Fact: If you meet the requirements, you can switch your status to a "Designated Activities" (特定活動) visa to stay in Japan and continue job hunting. Graduation doesn't mean you have to give up right away!

Myth: Same visa type = Any job is OK 🏢➡️🍳Fact: Holding a working visa like 技人国 (Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services) doesn't mean you can switch to any industry. Your actual daily job duties must legally fit the activities allowed under your specific residence status.

Visa rules are complicated and navigating them alone can be stressful.

Don't risk your visa by guessing—if you are unsure before your current status expires, come talk to the experts at Legal Gate!

Save this post and share it with a friend who wants to do job hunting in Japan!
