SSW Visa to Japan
The Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) visa is designed to attract foreign workers to Japan in specific industries facing labor shortages. It allows skilled workers to reside and work in Japan for a specified period. To qualify, applicants need to pass a skills evaluation exam and secure a job offer from a Japanese employer in one of the designated industries. The visa may be renewed, depending on the terms of the employment contract and the ongoing demand for skilled workers in the relevant sector.
Requirements (generally):
- Pass a skills evaluation exam in your field
- Job offer in a designated SSW industry from a Japanese employer
- Educational qualifications relevant to the job
