The Fukuoka Immigration Bureau handles various procedures regarding status of residence.
(extension of period of stay, change of status of residence, application for permanent residence, procedures for permission to engage in activities other than those permitted under the status of residence in order to work part-time, procedures for bringing in a foreigner who is abroad, etc.)
The General Consultation Information Center for Foreign Residents has been established as a consultation center that mainly provides information on immigration procedures related to status of residence and other matters. In recent years, there has been an increasing need to address the problems that foreign residents are facing in their daily lives, so in addition to the conventional information on immigration procedures, the center also provides consultation services related to general daily life, and functions as an entry point for residency support.
