Who this article is forAn enquiry from the applicant, who was asked by 地方出入国在留管理局 (Regional Immigration Services Bureau) to submit additional documents after applying to change to the 経営管理 visa.

Answer

As the basis for sales in the 収支計画書 (income and expenditure plan), it is desirable to prepare as many signed master agreements as possible, rather than relying only on records of verbal agreements, emails and meetings, and it is also worth considering asking 地方出入国在留管理局 to extend the submission deadline so that the number of agreements can be increased. As for hiring staff, it is considered best to redo the 収支計画書 so that it includes specific timing, such as half a year or 12 months later (including labour insurance and social insurance premiums), and to submit the employment contract as a “planned-use version” in a format that covers all the legally required notice items published on the Labour Bureau website, with every field except the name filled in.
