Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services visa (Japan)

What is an Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services visa?
Under a law revision in April 2015, “Engineer” and “Specialist in Humanities/International Services” were combined into one status.
Even though they were combined into one status, there were no particular changes to the permission criteria. It is a visa that can be obtained by a foreigner who has graduated from a university or vocational school and has been employed. Clerical jobs for sales and trade, interpretation, translation, designers’ work, work related to computers, such as SE, and engineers’ work for electronics and mechanical systems fall under “Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services.”
