Official New Guidelines toward April 2020 student visa application (By the Immigration Bureau of Japan)
Every semester, the Immigration Bureau of Japan delivers new guidelines regarding the student visa application. This time, big changes!

Summer Fireworks is a tradition in Japan. Most of them are held during the summer as a tribute to dead people. There is almost one every day around the “Obon” Festival in August.
