Summary
Japan’s House of Representatives passed a bill to significantly raise the maximum fees for immigration procedures. The amendment would increase the fee ceiling to 100,000 yen for residence status changes and stay extensions, and to 300,000 yen for permanent residence applications, compared with the current 10,000 yen cap. The bill is expected to pass during the current Diet session and, if approved by the upper house, the new fees will take effect within the current fiscal year ending next March.
