      In order to invite your family to come join you in Japan, you must apply for “Dependent Visa” and only your spouse and any children.

• • • Notification of Place of Residence for the Family Members
      Within 14 days of moving to the new residence, the family members should visit the Ward Office and submit the moving-in notification. They should take their Residence Card and, in case they live in the same household with you, they should also take an official proof of their relationship with you (marriage certificate, birth certificate, etc.). Official documents written in foreign languages should be submitted with their translation in Japanese. An additional document with the name, address, and seal or signature of the person who translated the documents should be submitted as well. You may translate the documents yourself. All the submitted documents should be original. For any original documents that you want returned, please notify the official when handing in your application documents. With the moving-in notification, the family members should apply for National Health Insurance, National Pension System, and other official programs if eligible.

• • • Extension of your Family Members’ Period of Stay
      Application for extension can be done 3 months prior to the day of expiration, so be sure to file for the application of extension as early as possible so as to avoid any inconveniences.*

      When a child is born to two foreign nationals in Japan, an application for acquisition of status of residence must be made within 30 days of birth. However, if the child is leaving Japan within 60 days of birth, the application is not necessary. First, you submit the registration of birth at a ward office. When you submit it, the name and the date of birth of your child will be listed in the resident record of your household. The application should be made by either parent at the Nagoya Regional Immigration Services Bureau.*
