I’m planning to bring my family to Japan
If you are living and working in Japan, you may wish to bring your family to join you.
This may include:
Dependent
家族滞在
- A spouse or children living in abroad
- A child soon to be born into an international couple
Temporary Visitor
短期滞在
- Parents,siblings, and relatives planning a short visit to Japan
If your family member holds a passport from a visa-exempt country, they may enter Japan without applying for a Temporary Visitor visa. For the list of visa-exempt countries, check the [MOFA website].
What the authorities review
For Dependent Visas
- Your income and financial capacity
- Your housing situation
- Your immigration compliance history
- The accuracy and completeness of documents
For Temporary Visitor Visits
- A credible reason for the visit
- An invitation letter and schedule of stay
- Evidence of strong ties to the home country
Even for short stays, weak or unclear explanations can lead to refusal.
How we can assist
We support you by:
- Identifying the correct visa category
- Reviewing eligibility and approval prospects
- Preparing invitation letters, schedules, and supporting documents
For Temporary Visitor cases, we can prepare all documentation; however, submission must be made by your family member at the Japanese embassy or consulate in their home country, as representatives cannot file on their behalf.
