[Approved Case] Child’s Long-Term Resident Visa | Client Voice VOL.148
Obtaining a Long-Term Resident Visa for a Child
Case Overview | Child’s Long-Term Resident Visa (Clarifying Issues Related to Adoption Systems)
In this case, we were consulted by a client from Bangladesh (Mr./Ms. R) regarding obtaining a Long-Term Resident Visa for their child. As a key review point, the discussion extended to adoption systems in an Islamic country. We therefore organized the relevant relationships and built a clear explanation from the perspective of private international law, and ultimately the child was granted the status of Long-Term Resident.

[Staff Comment]
We have finally reached the point where the Long-Term Resident status has been granted.
At ACROSEED Immigration Lawyer's Office, we handle many visa applications for children. In this case, however, the discussion extended to adoption systems in an Islamic country, and we found ourselves revisiting specialist references on private international law to address the issues thoroughly.
We have also seen an increasing number of successful approvals for foreign mothers who are unmarried, have Japanese children, and have a past history of overstaying. We continue to respond to these expanding needs in an increasingly globalized society.
