Japan's business manager visa dilemma: crackdown, or discouraging foreign entrepreneurs
About this episode
The episode discusses Japan's tightened requirements for its business manager visa and the implications for foreign entrepreneurs.
Japan has tightened the requirements for its business manager residence status, which allows foreign nationals to start businesses in the country. The move was driven by multiple concerns, including misuse of the visa. While the crackdown aims to restore trust in the system, experts say it also risks pushing legitimate foreign entrepreneurs away from Japan. NHK World's Ekuan Koji listens to voices of those involved to explore this unfolding dilemma.
