Visa Kỹ sư/Chuyên gia nhân văn: ai đủ điều kiện?

Tư cách Kỹ sư/Chuyên gia nhân văn/Dịch vụ quốc tế (技術・人文知識・国際業務) dành cho công việc chuyên môn văn phòng và kỹ thuật. Ai đủ điều kiện và cơ quan xem xét gì.

Xem xét ngày 2026-10-26

Tư cách này cho phép làm công việc gì?

Tư cách Kỹ sư/Chuyên gia nhân văn/Dịch vụ quốc tế (技術・人文知識・国際業務) áp dụng cho công việc theo hợp đồng với tổ chức công hoặc tư của Nhật Bản, cần kiến thức hoặc kỹ năng về khoa học tự nhiên hay nhân văn, hoặc cần cách nghĩ, sự nhạy cảm bắt nguồn từ văn hóa nước ngoài.

Hợp đồng có thể là lao động, ủy thác, thuê ngoài hoặc ủy nhiệm, nhưng phải là mối quan hệ liên tục với các tổ chức cụ thể. Tư cách này không cho phép công việc chủ yếu là dịch vụ thông thường hoặc làm trong nhà máy; Cục nêu rằng những việc như vậy không được chấp nhận làm hoạt động chính.

Người tốt nghiệp đại học Nhật Bản có năng lực tiếng Nhật cao có thể thay vào đó được nhận theo Hoạt động đặc định (Thông báo số 46), cho phép phạm vi công việc rộng hơn tư cách này.

Cần trình độ học vấn hoặc kinh nghiệm gì?

Với công việc thuộc khoa học tự nhiên hoặc nhân văn, người nộp đơn có thể đủ điều kiện nếu tốt nghiệp đại học (hoặc chương trình tương đương) ngành liên quan đến kỹ thuật hoặc kiến thức mà công việc cần. Hoàn thành chương trình chuyên môn hoặc nâng cao (専攻科) ngành liên quan tại trường dạy nghề của Nhật cũng được, nếu việc hoàn thành đáp ứng điều kiện theo thông báo của Bộ trưởng Tư pháp.

Con đường thứ ba là có từ 10 năm kinh nghiệm thực tế trở lên, có thể tính cả thời gian học ngành liên quan ở đại học, cao đẳng kỹ thuật, trung học phổ thông hoặc trường dạy nghề. Cục coi người tốt nghiệp cao đẳng ngắn hạn của Nhật như đã tốt nghiệp đại học.

Kinh nghiệm chỉ tích lũy khi là thực tập sinh kỹ năng hoặc lao động kỹ năng đặc định không được tính là kinh nghiệm thực tế. Người nộp đơn ngành CNTT đã đỗ kỳ thi xử lý thông tin được chỉ định hoặc có chứng chỉ được chỉ định được miễn yêu cầu về bằng cấp hoặc kinh nghiệm.

Công việc quốc tế gồm gì và mức lương cần thế nào?

Công việc cần cách nghĩ hoặc sự nhạy cảm dựa trên văn hóa nước ngoài chỉ giới hạn ở các việc như biên dịch, phiên dịch, giảng dạy ngôn ngữ, quan hệ công chúng, quảng cáo, thương mại quốc tế, thiết kế thời trang hoặc nội thất, phát triển sản phẩm, hoặc việc tương tự. Chỉ là người nước ngoài thì chưa đủ.

Công việc dạng quốc tế còn yêu cầu từ 3 năm kinh nghiệm thực tế liên quan trở lên, trừ người tốt nghiệp đại học làm biên dịch, phiên dịch hoặc giảng dạy ngôn ngữ thì không cần kinh nghiệm này. 3 năm không nhất thiết là cùng công việc với nhiệm vụ mới nhưng phải là công việc liên quan.

Tiêu chuẩn về lương là người nộp đơn nhận mức lương bằng hoặc cao hơn người Nhật làm cùng công việc. Các khoản phụ cấp mang tính hoàn trả chi phí như đi lại, gia đình, nhà ở không được tính vào phép thử này, trừ khi chúng chịu thuế.

Công việc và đào tạo nào không được chấp nhận?

Hướng dẫn nêu rằng công việc tuyển dụng không đòi hỏi kinh nghiệm, và công việc thường do nhân viên người Nhật không có bằng cấp hoặc kinh nghiệm cần thiết đảm nhiệm, không đủ điều kiện.

Đào tạo tại chỗ ban đầu ở những nhiệm vụ ngoài tư cách, như làm ở cửa hàng hay dây chuyền nhà máy, được cho phép nếu nhân viên tốt nghiệp đại học người Nhật cũng được đào tạo như vậy và nó không chiếm phần lớn toàn bộ thời gian lưu trú dự kiến, tính gộp qua các lần cấp phép. Không đặt ra mức trần theo phần trăm cho các nhiệm vụ này.

Nếu đào tạo thực hành kéo dài quá 1 năm kể từ khi tuyển dụng, Cục yêu cầu kế hoạch đào tạo và xem xét thời gian đào tạo có hợp lý không. Khi có kế hoạch đào tạo, ở quyết định đầu tiên Cục về nguyên tắc cấp thời hạn lưu trú 1 năm để kiểm tra việc chuyển sang công việc đúng tư cách.

Phân loại tổ chức tiếp nhận và hồ sơ

Cục phân tổ chức tiếp nhận thành Nhóm 1 đến 4. Nhóm 1 gồm công ty niêm yết, cơ quan chính phủ, cơ quan hành chính độc lập và các tổ chức tương tự. Nhóm 2 gồm tổ chức có thuế khấu trừ tại nguồn trên tiền lương trong báo cáo năm trước từ 10,000,000 yên trở lên. Nhóm 3 đã nộp báo cáo đó nhưng không thuộc Nhóm 2, còn Nhóm 4 là mọi tổ chức hoặc cá nhân khác.

Với hồ sơ xin Giấy chứng nhận tư cách lưu trú, cơ quan thuộc Nhóm 1 và 2 thường chỉ cần các mục hồ sơ chung và giấy tờ chứng minh nhóm, vì các giấy tờ khác về nguyên tắc không bắt buộc. Cơ quan thuộc Nhóm 3 và 4 còn nộp giấy chứng nhận đăng ký công ty, tài liệu mô tả hoạt động kinh doanh, báo cáo tài chính mới nhất, tài liệu về công việc và lương, cùng giấy tờ chứng minh lý lịch và học vấn của người nộp đơn.

Yêu cầu ngôn ngữ, thời hạn lưu trú và thời gian xử lý

Với hồ sơ nộp từ ngày 15 tháng 4 năm 2026, tổ chức thuộc Nhóm 3 và 4 phải nộp thêm giấy tờ, trong đó có bản khai về người đại diện tổ chức. Với công việc chủ yếu dùng ngôn ngữ để làm việc với con người, như biên dịch, phiên dịch hay lễ tân khách sạn, năng lực ngôn ngữ ở mức khoảng CEFR B2 được kỳ vọng.

Với tiếng Nhật, JLPT N2 trở lên, BJT từ 400 điểm trở lên hoặc phần tiếng Nhật EJU từ 200 điểm trở lên được chấp nhận là tương đương B2, bên cạnh các cách được chấp nhận khác. Thời hạn lưu trú của tư cách này là 5 năm, 3 năm, 1 năm hoặc 3 tháng.

Thời gian xử lý tiêu chuẩn cho gia hạn là 2 tuần đến 1 tháng. Người giữ tư cách phải thông báo cho Cục trong vòng 14 ngày khi tổ chức ký hợp đồng chấm dứt hợp đồng hoặc đổi tên, địa chỉ, hoặc khi ký hợp đồng mới.
