Hey there,
My exchange studies are ending this month and I am moving out of my apartment soon.
I want to stay 1,5 months longer in Japan to travel around and my visa is still valid for long after that too. But the exchange student visa is connected to having an address, so when I move out I dont have it anymore. I went to the immigration bureau with all the documents and asked if I can change my visa to the temporary visitor visa…they said I should just leave to korea and come back to get a normal 90 days tourist visa.
Is there another way around that? Could I just tell my city office I move out without giving them a new address? Or should I try at another immigration bureau? I read several times people just stay and get their 在留カードbroken when leaving the country later.
If someone has any experiences on that I would be grateful!
