Summary
Japan's Immigration Services Agency has proposed stricter permanent residency guidelines requiring applicants to maintain an income above the average Japanese household level. The draft also introduces closer scrutiny of applications and adds a requirement that applicants be expected to receive pension benefits comparable to those earned after 30 years of contributions to Japan's employees' pension system. The revised guidelines are expected to take effect after a public comment period.
