The Japan Work Visa processing time varies based on visa category and documentation accuracy. On average, the Certificate of Eligibility (CoE) takes 1 to 3 months to be issued by the Immigration Bureau in Japan. After obtaining the CoE, the Japan Work Visa application submitted at the consulate typically takes 5 to 10 working days. UAE-based applicants should plan ahead and ensure proper documentation to avoid delays. Priority timelines may also depend on the employer’s responsiveness and immigration workload.
