Ensuring your business start-up in Japan. The Importance of "Pre-Consulting" to Obtain a Business Management Visa

The first major hurdle for foreign entrepreneurs starting a business in Japan is to obtain a "business administration visa. However, it is not enough to simply prepare the necessary documents. The Immigration Bureau's screening process is becoming stricter and stricter every year, and business continuity and stability are strictly required.

Therefore, the fastest route to success is to have a professional "strategic pre-positioning" (legal audit) before starting the full application process.

1. Why is "pre-consulting" necessary?

To apply for a business management visa, it is essential to secure an office, prepare capital, and submit an elaborate business plan. However, once a company is established incorrectly or an inappropriate business plan is submitted, it is difficult to correct the situation later.

Our consulting agreements minimize risk through the following steps

• legal check: Based on the current immigration standards (2026 standards), the possibility of obtaining a visa will be determined in advance.
• Strategic review of business plans: In collaboration with a small and medium-sized enterprise diagnostician, we objectively evaluate the sustainability of the business.
• Optimized Articles of Incorporation for visasWe draft strategic Articles of Incorporation for future visa renewals and business expansion.
• Risk Mitigation AdviceThe "critical points" of the screening process, such as the source of funds and office requirements, are cleared in advance.

2. "Appropriation system" to avoid wasting consultation fees

In consideration of the burden on entrepreneurs, our firm has introduced a "Pre-Consulting Fee Allocation System".

If, after signing this contract, you actually proceed to the full support package for visa application, thisAllocation of consulting fees directly to application feesWe will do it.

In other words, it is possible to receive, in effect, a "preliminary thorough investigation" as part of the application fee.

3. Multifaceted support by a professional team

Visa applications are not the exclusive domain of administrative scriveners. We work with professionals in various fields such as judicial scriveners (registration), certified tax accountants (accounting), and small and medium-sized enterprise diagnosticians (management), while maintaining confidentiality.

This will solidify your first step in Japan from all legal, financial, and management angles.
