Japan Work Visa Requirements from Pakistan

For many long-term employment routes, the process begins with the Japanese employer or another authorized party applying for a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) in Japan.

Once the COE is issued, the applicant can proceed with the visa application through the appropriate Japanese diplomatic mission.

Common documents may include:

• Valid Pakistani passport
• Completed visa application form
• Recent photograph
• Certificate of Eligibility
• Employment contract or job offer
• Educational certificates
• Professional qualifications
• Work experience documents
• Updated CV
• Employer-related documents
• Other supporting documents requested by the authorities

A COE can help facilitate the visa application process, but it does not itself guarantee that a visa will be issued.
