Important Considerations for Renewing the "Business Manager" Status of Residence

Even those who currently hold the "Business Manager" status of residence must be careful when applying for renewal.
While the requirements for new applications for the "Business Manager" status of residence have been revised, existing holders will be required to adapt to the new standards starting from renewal applications submitted on or after October 16, 2028.
However, even if you apply for renewal before October 16, 2028, the fulfillment of your obligation to pay public dues and taxes will still be checked.
In particular, while there have been past cases where renewal was permitted even when a business failed to enroll in Labor Insurance despite a legal obligation to do so, such adherence will be checked more strictly going forward.
Furthermore, the proper creation and management of the Four Statutory Ledgers (Wage Ledger, Employee Register, Attendance Register,Annual Paid Leave Management Ledger) will also be checked.
Failure to fulfill these obligations may lead to a judgment that you are not appropriately conducting the activities corresponding to the "Business Manager" status, and there is a risk that your renewal application will be denied. Therefore, even if your renewal date is still far off, we recommend checking if you are fulfilling these obligations properly, and if not, taking immediate steps to comply.
If you find it difficult to handle these tasks yourself, we can introduce you to a certified Social Insurance and Labor Consultant (Shakai Hoken Roumushi). Please feel free to consult with us.
