Supposedly you have an “Engineer” visa.
Since I do not know your new job assignment, I will
explain two cases.
1. If your present job is IT engineering as it was
before, you will still have two years left on your
visa, so you can apply for a work qualification certificate.
When you extend your stay two years later, it is possible
to renew your visa by presenting this certificate.
The following documents are required when applying
for the certificate.
(1) Application form for a work qualification certificate.
(2) A tax certificate and a resignation letter. (3)
Documents explaining the profile of the new company:
A copy of your company register, a profit and loss
statement, and brochures. (4) A copy of your employment
contract that specifies your role, duration, position
and income. (5) A photo of your face (H30mm x W25mm)
(6) A 680 yen revenue stamp.
2. In case your job at the new company is not IT engineering,
but something in another field such as interpreting,
you must apply for a change of visa status. You can
begin to work after getting it approved. |
