Common questions
Do I need to speak Japanese for Legal & Compliance jobs in Japan?
It depends on the employer. Foreign-invested companies and global teams often run in English; Japanese companies more often expect at least conversational Japanese. Check the language chip and Seoulstart's read on each listing.
What's the visa route for Legal & Compliance jobs in Japan?
Office and technical roles in Japan are often hired under the Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services status of residence. The employer usually applies for it, and Seoulstart's read shows the likely route on each listing; confirm the details with the employer or Japan's Immigration Services Agency (moj.go.jp/isa).
