JapanStay
Japan Work Visa & Move Planner
A focused one-time planner for people preparing to move to Japan for sponsored work. Organize employer documents, personal paperwork, a 90-day timeline, budget gates, official-source checks, and first-month setup before expensive decisions.
¥2,900 one-time
Also included with Journey Plus
Planning support only
Positioning
A sponsored move to Japan gets fragmented fast.
Immigration status, visa flow, employer requests, personal documents, housing, flights, shipping, address registration, insurance, pension, phone, banking, and utilities all live in different places. JapanStay turns that messy middle into a practical planning system.
Timing
Use a 90-day move timeline and decision gates before flights, housing deposits, shipping, and other commitments.
Arrival setup
Keep first-month tasks visible: residence card, address registration, insurance, pension, phone, banking, and utilities.
What is included
A practical move-control pack, not just a file.
Based on the existing JapanStay product material, the planner helps organize the preparation period between “I have an offer” and “I arrive in Japan.”
Editable dashboard
A browser-based planner with 12 checkpoints, private local progress saving, and print/save-PDF support.
Document request tracker
Track employer requests, personal documents, translations, official links, and unresolved questions.
90-day timeline
Organize what to confirm before flights, housing deposits, shipping, and arrival planning.
Budget and source log
Plan flights, temporary stay, housing deposits, phone, banking, insurance, emergency reserve, and official-source checks.
JapanStay is planning support only. It does not provide legal, immigration, tax, financial, employment, housing, or professional advice.
