Yes! We will help you prepare all the necessary documents and requirements for your visa application so you don’t have to worry about it. Our team will guide you through the process and make sure everything is correctly submitted.

The requirement for the 150-hour certificate depends on multiple factors, including your nationality and Japan’s diplomatic relations with your country. Some students may be required to provide proof of at least 150 hours of Japanese study, while others may not. Neither DEOW Japan nor the schools have control over this requirement, as it is determined by Japanese immigration policies. If you’re unsure whether this applies to you, we recommend checking with us so we can help you understand your specific situation.
Unfortunately, we only assist with student visas for long-term studies and tourist visas for short-term studies. If you are looking to apply for a working visa, we recommend checking with the Japanese Immigration Bureau or consulting an expert in visa sponsorship.

The main difference between long-term and short-term studies is the length of the program and the type of visa required:

    • Short-term studies usually last up to 90 days and can often be done on a tourist visa (depending on nationality). These programs are ideal for those looking to experience Japan while improving their Japanese.
    • Long-term studies typically last 6 months to 2 years and require a student visa. These programs are for students who want to study Japanese intensively and potentially continue to higher education or work in Japan.

If you’re unsure which option is best for you, we can help you explore the possibilities!
