On average, the process takes about 4 to 6 months after successfully passing your employer interview. This timeframe includes the Certificate of Eligibility (COE) processing in Japan, visa application, and mandatory pre-departure orientation.

For the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) program, you must officially pass the JFT-Basic or JLPT N4 exam. For TITP, basic conversational Japanese (N5/N4 equivalent) is highly recommended. Our Hayabusa Language Academy provides complete training to help you pass these requirements.

You need a valid passport, a clear medical and police record, and a strong willingness to learn the Japanese language and culture. Specific SSW sectors will also require you to pass the corresponding Prometric skill evaluation test.

TITP (Technical Intern Training Program) focuses on international skills transfer, allowing you to train in Japan while working. SSW (Specified Skilled Worker) is a dedicated employment visa to address labor shortages, requiring candidates to already possess certain skills and Japanese language proficiency before applying.

Yes, passing a comprehensive medical examination at a government-authorized clinic is mandatory for both TITP and SSW visas. Candidates must be physically and mentally fit for long-term work. Conditions such as severe chronic illnesses, infectious diseases, or major color blindness (depending on specific industrial sectors like construction or manufacturing) may restrict eligibility.

Absolutely. Failing an interview is simply a stepping stone. Our team will review the interview with you, provide feedback on areas of improvement (such as conversational confidence or body language), and immediately match you with the next available vacancy that aligns with your skillset.

Generally, applicants should be between 18 and 35 years old to meet the standard expectations of most Japanese employers. However, for certain specialized SSW categories, highly experienced candidates slightly above this range may still be considered depending on the employer's specific requirements.
