Working Holiday
Based on agreements between Japan and other countries / areas, “Working Holiday Visa” can be issued for young people to provide opportunities to understand cultures and lifestyles of others. This is based on the system that countries permit those to do activities during the certain period of vacation and work to compensate for his/her living expenses.
