Hi, I got a CoE for a 3 years engineer visa for Japan this February but haven’t submit it yet to get the visa. The CoE is valid 3 months, so until May.
I am a software engineer from Germany and want to work in Japan and have applied for many companies in Japan and had dozen of interviews in Japanese and finally an offer. The offer from Company A is really bad int terms of salary, vacation, benefits. I would have say no, but I accepted the conditions. This was in November and they applied for CoE.
Last week I got a better offer from another Japanese company – Company B. I would like to work there. They also would provide me visa support and apply for the CoE.
My question now is. Can I enter Japan with my CoE in May and work for the new company B or do I have to wait until the old one is expired, so the other company B will apply for a new one? I haven‘t told company A yet but I will soon.. I feel sorry but the other offer is much better.
Can Company B apply for a new CoE even my current CoE is still active or do I need to wait until May?
What can I do?
