The SSW Visa is a Japan work visa designed for foreign workers who want to work in sectors facing severe labour shortages, such as caregiving, construction, food service, agriculture, and manufacturing. It requires candidates to pass a skills test and, in many cases, a Japanese language exam. The SSW Visa offers strong job opportunities and allows workers to change employers under certain conditions. For UAE residents, the SSW Visa is one of the most accessible routes to work in Japan and provides a pathway to long-term residence.
