Things to consider before applying for a status of residence of "Business Manager"

Foreigners who do not have a status of residence that does not restrict work, such as a "Permanent Resident" or "Long-Term Resident," need to obtain a status of residence of "Business Manager" in order to start a business in Japan.
However, depending on the type of business, you cannot start just by obtaining the status of residence of "Business Manager".
For example, if you want to buy and sell used cars, you will need a "Secondhand Dealer License", and if you want to start a construction business, you will need permission from the prefectural governor.
As with the status of residence of "Business Manager", it is possible to apply for these permits yourself, but most people probably ask a Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist to do so.
One thing to keep in mind here is that some Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialists who specialize in applications for status of residence for foreigners such as "Business Manager" do not handle license and permit applications.
In such cases, after requesting the application for status of residence of "Business Manager" from one Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist and receiving approval, you will need to request the applications for licenses and permits from another Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist.
If you choose a Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist who will handle both applications for status od residence and licenses, they will also properly manage your schedule so that you can start your business promptly.
It is important to avoid a situation where you are unable to start your business because licenses and permits are not issued, even after you have been granted the status of residence of "Business Manager".
To do this, it is important to carefully consider which Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist to ask for your help.
