Company establishment support
When a foreigner establishes a new company in order to obtain a status of residence of "Business Manager", there are different requirements than for normal company establishment. If these requirements are not met, the status of residence of "Business Manager" will not be granted even if the company is established.
Furthermore, the business plan is also very important. In particular, the continuity of the business is looked at, so if the business plan is not well prepared, the application will be denied. Our office will support the creation of a business plan by utilizing our practical experience at major companies.
Based on the above, our office provides support for company establishment in order to obtain a status of residence of "Business Manager".
