I am working as a training visa, but I married a Japanese person who had a relationship for 2 years. I'd like to continue living in Japan, but can I switch to a Japanese spouse visa?
You can apply, but it is quite difficult to get approved. Once the husband returns to his home country and applies for a Certificate of Eligibility, there is a high possibility that the husband will bring his wife over. A training visa is a visa that allows a foreigner to acquire Japanese technology, skills, and knowledge at a Japanese company and bring back the acquired skills and knowledge back to their home country. Therefore, long-term stay in Japan, such as changing to a Japanese spouse visa, is often not permitted.
