The Highly Skilled Professional visa (高度人材ビザ) in Japan is designed to attract foreign workers with advanced and specialized skills to enhance Japan’s economic competitiveness. This visa is divided into three main categories:
- Advanced Academic Research Activities: For those engaged in research or academic activities.
- Advanced Specialized/Technical Activities: For those with specialized skills in fields like IT, engineering, and healthcare.
- Advanced Business Management Activities: For executives and managers.
Applicants are evaluated using a points-based system considering factors like educational background, professional experience, and annual salary. Those with higher points enjoy benefits such as a longer period of stay, eligibility for permanent residence after three years, and the ability to bring family members.
