Will permanent residency be
given to foreign workers?
As a real estate agent in Japan targeting foreign investors,
it’s important to keep up-to-date on the latest changes to immigration policy.
On April 24th, the Japanese government proposed a significant expansion of
the “Specified Skilled Worker 2” residency status, which allows skilled foreign workers to work in Japan.
If approved, this would allow for unlimited employment of foreign workers in 12 sectors facing labor shortages.
