Greetings

I specialize in visa applications and international affairs in Sapporo, Hokkaido, for foreign nationals. In my previous role as a Japanese language teacher, I had the opportunity to interact with numerous foreign individuals. During my overseas assignments and in Japan, I witnessed many foreign individuals who, due to lack of knowledge, faced challenges in obtaining visas and had to give up their lives in Japan to return to their home countries.

It was in such situations that I realized the importance of the work of an administrative scrivener in assisting foreign individuals. With that goal in mind, I obtained the administrative scrivener qualification. Visas are often crucial to the life decisions of foreign individuals who choose Japan among the world’s countries and opt to live in Japan. I am committed to supporting their stay in Japan to help them pursue the lives they desire with all my efforts.

I will do my best to support foreigners who have chosen Japan from among the countries of the world and who have chosen to live in Japan so that they can lead the life they desire in Japan.

Please feel free to contact us.
