Why Choose Us
The appropriate visa (residence status) depends on your purpose of stay in Japan and the type of work you will be doing.
We provide tailored advice not only for obtaining your current visa but also with your future goals in mind.
In addition to my work as an administrative scrivener, I have supported foreigners for many years as a Japanese language teacher.
I take extra care to explain legal procedures clearly and kindly, especially for those who may be worried about difficult Japanese terms.
I also provide practical advice on Japanese language requirements and interview questions often asked during visa (residence status) applications.
Based in Oshu and Morioka, Iwate Prefecture, we are a community-rooted administrative scrivener office.
With deep knowledge of local procedures at legal affairs bureaus and immigration offices, we provide fast and flexible support for those looking to consult a local expert.
In addition to visa applications, we also handle inheritance procedures, company formation, and business license applications.
Even if you're not sure where to start or who to ask, we provide comprehensive support through a single point of contact.
We serve not only clients in Iwate Prefecture, but also those living outside the region or overseas.
With online consultations available via Zoom, even foreign residents living far away or those busy on weekdays can consult with us comfortably and with confidence.
Many foreign clients may feel unsure about the Japanese language or unfamiliar with local systems.
At our office, we take the time to listen carefully — not only about visa matters, but also about daily life concerns — creating a welcoming and approachable environment for consultation.
Our Services
A permanent residency visa is an important step toward long-term stability and increased social trust in Japan.
The application requires strict conditions and documentation, but we provide thorough support throughout the process.
Key factors include tax records, length of stay, and good conduct.
Careful review and strategic preparation are essential.
Feel free to contact us even if you're just wondering whether you're eligible to apply at this time.
We support the application and renewal of residence status for those married to a Japanese national or permanent resident.
To help avoid rejection, we provide tailored advice based on your situation.
Key points include proving your relationship history, submitting accurate income documents, and addressing any previous visa denials.
First-time applicants are also welcome — feel free to reach out with confidence.
Naturalization — obtaining Japanese citizenship — is a major life decision and legal process.
We provide full support to help make your application as smooth as possible, including preparation for interviews.
The process requires gathering a wide range of documents, such as your address and work history, bank statements, and family relationship charts.
We assist with every step carefully and thoroughly.
If desired, we can also accompany you to the Legal Affairs Bureau.
We handle a variety of visa types, including family visas for international students and workers, Technical Intern Training, and the
Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services visa.
We propose the most suitable visa based on each individual’s circumstances.
Even if you're unsure which visa fits your case or if there are multiple options, we’ll help you choose the best one based on our experience.
Consultations from companies and employers are also welcome.
We provide careful support for inheritance procedures, including preparing inheritance agreements, collecting family registers, and identifying heirs — all of which can be complex and time-consuming.
For business licenses in industries such as construction, food service, and industrial waste, we assist from requirement checks to document preparation and communication with authorities.
Our incorporation support includes articles of incorporation, legal filings, and post-registration procedures.
We guide first-time clients clearly and ensure a smooth, stress-free experience tailored to each individual’s needs.
We provide comprehensive support for various visa types such as Student Visa, Temporary Visitor Visa, Designated Activities Visa, and
Cultural Activities Visa. Each visa category has different requirements and necessary documents, making it difficult for individuals to determine the appropriate procedures on their own.
At Fujinami Administrative Scrivener Office, we assist foreigners in smoothly living and working in Japan by offering support in organizing application details, preparing documents, and submitting them on your behalf. Our explanations are clear and accessible, even for first-time applicants, ensuring a worry-free application process.
