JapanJapan: Certificate of Eligibility and visa
The document set for the Certificate of Eligibility and a student visa for Japan.
The request pays for nothing. A manager confirms the contents, timing and price, and only then do you pay.
The price of our work. University, consulate and partner fees are paid separately, on their invoices, with no markup from us.
A student visa for Japan usually requires a Certificate of Eligibility first. The school or university applies for it on your behalf at Japan's Immigration Services Agency. It is not yet a visa: you use it to apply for the visa at the embassy.
We prepare your documents for the university, check the set and help with the visa package for the embassy. The certificate has a limited validity period, so it is best to plan your trip in advance. Requirements depend on the university, programme and admission year.
