Returning to Japan After Years – What to Do First?

Is there anyone here who can guide us on how to start our life in Japan?

For context, I’m a Japanese-Filipino with a Japanese passport, and my husband is Filipino with Philippine passport. I’ve lived most of my life in the Philippines and have only visited Japan during holidays to see my parents in Aichi.

My husband and I got married early this year, and I’ve already obtained my own koseki tohon from the Japanese Embassy here in the Philippines. I don’t have a juminhyo since I haven’t lived in Japan since the early 2000s.

Right now, my only primary IDs are my Japanese passport and an almost expired My Number card.

My husband and I are planning to move to Japan in two years, and we would really appreciate any advice on what our first steps should be in preparing to return to Japan.

Thank you so much!
