在留期间更新和在留资格变更有什么区别?

在留资格变更适用于想变更为另一种在留资格的外国人。变更为永住者不在此列,需另行提出永住许可申请。在留期间更新则是延长在留期间的另一项手续。

变更许可的审查标准是:拟从事的活动真实,属于附表一的活动或除永住者以外的附表二在留资格,并且有相当理由认定变更适当。

最晚什么时候申请?

在留资格变更须在变更事由发生后、最迟在现有在留期间的最后一天申请。在留期间更新可在到期日前提出,在留期间为6个月以上的人,可从到期3个月前开始受理。

出入国在留管理厅请希望在现有在留期间内得到更新结果的人,在到期前3个月至45天之间申请。遇到留学、长期海外派驻、怀孕或住院等确实不得已的情况,办事处也可能提前受理,并请申请人事先向办事处咨询。

到期日前仍未作出决定的,按期提出申请的在留卡持有人可以按原资格继续停留,直到作出决定,或到原到期日起满2个月,以较早者为准。申请时的在留期间为30天以下的,不适用此规定。

要办多久?

标准办理时间:在留资格变更为1至2个月,在留期间更新为2周至1个月。

出入国在留管理厅每月公布平均办理天数,从受理算到许可通知,不含不许可和撤回的案件。2026年8月获批的案件中,技术·人文知识·国际业务资格的平均天数为:更新41.0天,变更51.3天;留学资格为更新59.3天,变更63.2天。

平均天数包含等待补充材料的日子。更新和变更的通知日就是领取日,所以实际审查往往比平均值短。

在窗口办理要花多少钱?

自2026年10月1日起,窗口办理在留资格变更或在留期间更新的手续费随获批期间而定:3个月以下10,000日元,超过3个月至6个月18,000日元,超过6个月至不满1年25,000日元,1年33,000日元。

更长的期间:超过1年至不满3年48,000日元,3年至不满5年64,000日元,5年以上75,000日元。窗口手续费用收入印纸缴纳。

依法,手续费在许可被记载、发放或盖章时缴纳。在窗口申请时无需缴费,许可发放前被拒绝或撤回申请的,也无需缴纳。

在线申请费用、旧费用和减免

2026年10月1日起受理的在线申请对超过3个月的期间,费用低于窗口办理:3个月以下10,000日元,之后依次为15,000、21,000、27,000(1年)、42,000、56,000日元,5年以上65,000日元。另加收330日元支付手续费(3年和5年档为550日元)。

在线申请的手续费不用收入印纸,而是在收到完成邮件后到便利店或银行缴纳;不支持信用卡和二维码支付。2026年9月30日前受理的申请,即使许可在2026年10月1日之后发放,仍按原来统一的6,000日元缴费。

只有同时处于相当于需要生活保护的困境、且需要人道关怀的人,才可能获得减免。减免后,在留资格变更和在留期间更新的手续费均为10,000日元;在线申请不能减免,必须到窗口办理。

审查看什么,由谁来申请?

是否许可变更或更新,由法务大臣在综合考虑拟从事的活动、居留表现和停留必要性后自由裁量,所依据的指引最初发布于2008年,最近一次修订在2026年6月。只有活动符合在留资格是必须满足的要件,登陆标准原则上也需符合。

其他因素包括现有资格下的活动实绩、品行、独立生计、适当的雇佣条件、纳税义务和申报义务。全部满足也不保证获得许可。欠缴税款会对申请人不利,没有正当理由凭再入国许可长期滞留国外也是如此。

18岁以上的申请人须由本人提出申请,除非由经批准的代理人代为申请。出入国在留管理厅的手续说明中没有列出对不许可结果的申诉方式。

  • The averages count the time from receipt to the notice of permission, including the days waiting for supplementary documents, and leave out refusals and withdrawals; for extensions and changes the notice date is the pick-up day, so the review itself is often shorter.
  • The certificate of eligibility is valid for 3 months from issue, and that validity is separate from the visa's validity; the Q&A states no shorter validity for particular statuses.
  • On the foreign national's application the Minister of Justice may issue a certificate stating which income-earning activities the person may perform (the certificate of authorized employment).

  • From applications on 15 April 2026, category 3 and 4 employers must additionally submit a declaration about the organization's representative, and where the job mainly uses a language skill (for example interpreting or hotel front desk) proof of CEFR B2-level ability in that language.

  • For an Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services extension, only category 3 and 4 employers' staff must add the latest-year resident-tax certificate (taxed or non-taxed) and tax-payment certificate, whereas category 1 and 2 need nothing further in principle; the first extension after moving to a category 3 or 4 employer adds the contract, registry and financial documents again.
  • A Dependent extension or change application needs a document proving the family relationship (family register, marriage or birth certificate), a copy of the supporter's residence card or passport, and proof of the supporter's occupation and income such as an employment certificate and tax certificates (or, if the supporter is not earning, for example a student, a bank balance or scholarship certificate).
  • A tax certificate and a resident-tax certificate are each requested, but a single certificate that shows both the year's total income and the tax payment status is accepted instead; they are issued by the ward or city office for the address held on 1 January.
  • A change of status to Spouse of Japanese National needs the Japanese spouse's family-register extract showing the marriage (within 3 months), the foreign marriage certificate, proof of living costs, the Japanese spouse's guarantee letter and household resident record, a questionnaire, and 2 to 3 snapshots of the couple, with SNS or call records also accepted as proof of contact.
  • A Spouse of Japanese National extension needs the Japanese spouse's family-register extract, proof of living costs (the supporting person's tax and tax-payment certificates for the latest year), the spouse's guarantee letter and the spouse's household resident record; the questionnaire and couple snapshots required for a change of status are not listed.
  • The school-prepared confirmation forms that accompany a Student extension or change are written by the enrolled or planned school, not by the applicant, and are not required for non-language vocational schools, high schools, certain graduates from listed countries, or applicants whose school has not changed since the last filing.
  • A Student change of status needs a statement of expense payment, while a Student extension needs a declaration of living-cost payment; both come with a list of accepted scholarship certificates and a form note on which documents are required for the applicant's nationality.
  • The guideline's eight points are: the activity fits the status (a must), landing criteria are met (in principle), and then representative factors: past activity under the current status, good conduct, independent livelihood, proper employment conditions, tax duties, and notification duties; meeting all of them still does not guarantee permission.
  • The online residence application system can be used by staff of the sponsoring organization, lawyers and administrative scriveners, staff of public-interest corporations and registered support organizations, the foreign national, a statutory representative, and a spouse, child or parent as a relative.
  • Online filing covers certificate of eligibility, change of status, extension, acquisition and certificate of authorized employment applications, and re-entry and outside-status permission only together with a change, extension or acquisition; Diplomat, Temporary Visitor and the departure-preparation Designated Activity are excluded.
  • Applications may be filed for the applicant by approved agents (staff of the employing or educating organization, supervising bodies and certain public-interest corporations approved by the regional bureau head) or by lawyers and administrative scriveners who have notified the regional bureau; relatives may file for a child under 16 or an ill applicant.
  • The persons the cabinet order designates for a fee reduction or waiver are: people near public-assistance level who need humanitarian consideration (such as recognized refugees); people changing to Diplomat or Official; Official holders extending; and others set by ministerial ordinance.

  • The poverty test in the ISA fee-reduction guideline covers four types: people receiving protection on par with public assistance, people receiving protection payments while an asylum claim is pending, people receiving support benefits as returned Japanese-descent war orphans, and others judged equally destitute (only for certain humanitarian categories, judged on assets and work status).
  • The humanitarian side of the test has 12 types, including recognized refugees and their long-term-resident extension, third-country resettlement refugees, Indochinese refugees, returned war orphans, victims of trafficking, children in child-welfare facilities, patients with designated intractable diseases and their carers, and children with disabilities; a person must meet one poverty type and one humanitarian type.
  • Evidence for a fee reduction differs by type: a public-assistance recipient certificate, a payment receipt dated within the last 2 months, a support-benefit identification, or for the 'equally destitute' type a year of income-tax or non-taxation certificates plus a copy of a bankbook, and for some humanitarian types a child-welfare placement certificate or a medical or allowance certificate.
  • The fee can be waived entirely for people changing to Diplomat or Official, Official holders extending, and certain Designated Activity holders who work for or are family of staff of the Japan-Taiwan exchange association office or the Palestinian delegation in Japan, including their extensions.
  • A certificate of authorized employment needs the application form, the outside-status permission if held, the residence card and passport shown; if the employer or activity changed after the last permit, documents showing the new workplace and activity are added.
