Important points for successful naturalization application for Koreans and Koreans in Japan

Naturalization applications have several requirements that must be cleared.
Examples include:

• Address requirements
• Age (over 18 years old)
• Behavior
• Livelihood status

In addition, there are other things that are necessary for living in Japan.Japanese abilityDo you haveinterviewIt is judged through such as.
Koreans living in Japan shouldn't be particularly concerned.

Even if you have lived in Japan for a long time, you should be careful if you travel abroad frequently and spend a lot of time abroad each year.
This is because if you stay abroad for a long time, your stay history will be reset and it will take some time to meet the address conditions.
As a guideline for the periodLeaving the country for 90 consecutive days or more and leaving the country for a total of 1 days or more in one year.
If you leave Japan during this period, it is highly possible that your previous stay history will be reset.
Furthermore, there are documents that include travel history, so you need to check your travel history when creating the documents.
If you have a passport in the past, you can check it by looking at it, but if you do not have it, some people may not remember it.

Ministry of Justice siteExplains the application for naturalization, but not all the requirements are explained in detail.
For example, the livelihood situation checks not only whether there is sufficient household income, but also whether there have been past pension or tax delinquency.
Sufficient household income varies by region.
People who live in high-priced areas are judged to be unable to lead a stable life unless they have a high income, and in rural areas, conversely, it may be judged that there is no problem even if their annual income is low.
If you are applying for permanent residence, you must have an annual income of 300 million yen or more, but there are no clear standards for applying for naturalization.
Therefore, if you are unsure, please contact us in advance as the eligibility will be determined based on your household income.

These naturalization application requirements also apply to Korean residents in Japan who are special permanent residents born and raised in Japan.
There should be no problem with the address requirement of “Continue to have an address in Japan for 5 years or older” and the age requirement of “18 years or older”.
But in the pastProblems with behavior such as violating criminal lawThere isDelinquency of taxes and pension paymentsIn some cases, it may be determined that the requirements are not met.

It seems that some of the people who applied for naturalization were denied permission because they repeatedly violated traffic after applying. (*)

Please check carefully whether you have cleared these requirements for naturalization application.
