Naturalization in Japan – Approved Cases & Success Stories (Reviews)
Examples of Approved Naturalization Applications
About Our Naturalization Case List
Naturalization (acquisition of Japanese nationality) is examined through a comprehensive evaluation of years of residence, financial stability, behavior record, and integration into Japanese society.
Even with similar residence history or income, the result may differ depending on how you explain employment history, Japanese ability, family circumstances, and daily life stability.
