Free and low-cost Japanese classes, conversation groups, and the places that help in your own language when something goes wrong. Groups in Japan bound by a common thing: a country, a language, a school run, a hobby. Where to find people who already did the thing you are about to do.
This page does not yet list the offices, forms, costs or step-by-step procedures for it. The Immigration Services Agency publishes the Daily Life Support Portal, which covers this ground officially, free, in 19 languages, and is written by the agency that administers the procedures.
Everything on Locals is sourced from the body that publishes it, with the date it was read. That is slower than writing it from memory, which is why this page is empty rather than wrong. Back to Locals
