Hey everyone,
I’m currently living in Tokyo and trying to convert my Canadian driver’s license to a Japanese one. I lived in Canada for over 20 years, but I hold Korean citizenship (Korean passport).
From what I understand, Japan requires proof that you lived in Canada for at least 3 months after getting your license. For that part, I was planning to bring:
Canadian driver’s license
Canadian permanent resident card
Last year’s Canadian Notice of Assessment (tax document)
Would these documents be enough to prove my residency in Canada and get a Japanese driver’s license issued? Has anyone with a similar background (non-Canadian citizen, but long-term resident) gone through this process?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
