Hello,
I have been pondering moving to Japan recently, mostly to join my partner but I would like to think of a long period stay and the adapted visa to do so.
I am however pretty young (22) and have no long working experience. I currently have a degree in mechanics (2 years in college) but it is, I believe, not long enough to apply to a working visa, and I don't want to be in that field anyway.
Given spouse visa will not be an option in my case, I have pondered the Entrepreneur visa by associating with natives in Japan. My ideal idea is to work in video game development, but I don't really have an idea of how hard it might be.
Second possibility is to open a restaurant with my partner, but I'd honestly prefer the first over that.
Third possibility I see is teaching french (native) or english (fluent), but the latter I'm not as advanced. I have one year of experience in turoring pretty much in that field only (french for a foreigner) and I simply wonder what would be needed to be hired or to somewhat work as a private independant tutor.
Currently I am a beginner in Japanese, at this moment in Sapporo and staying in Japan for two more month, and I learn. What is the acceptable level and certification in Japanese to have better luck with my projects ?
I'd appreciate your opinion on the feasability of my ideas.
Thanks a lot !
