About Murai Administrative Scrivener Office

工事現場で働く外国人スタッフ

In recent years, a growing number of companies in Japan have been hiring foreign nationals amid labor shortages caused by the declining birthrate and aging population.
Many foreign nationals also wish to work in Japan or to build a life here after marrying a Japanese national, and inquiries about status of residence and visas are increasing year after year.
However, there are many types of status of residence, and the application details and required documents differ from person to person.
Many people have concerns such as "I don't know which status of residence is right for me," "We want to hire foreign nationals but are unsure about the procedures," or "I want to know how to extend or change my status."

Murai Administrative Scrivener Office focuses on consultations regarding the residence of foreign nationals, including work-related status of residence, inviting foreign nationals from overseas, and status of residence applications based on marriage to a Japanese national.
