Moving to Japan,
 
Hey guys,

I was just wondering if there is a possability to move to Tokyo, Japan?

Currently im living and studying in Sweden. But I got a big interest in Japan so now when this summer comes in, I need to get a work. I thought to continue study there and then after study, I thought to work there. But is it just that easy? Would be great. What do I need to prepare to move there, and is it possible?

Thanks,

- Lars

The short answer is "no, it is not just that easy".

It sounds like you are looking into a working holiday visa, which could be a good way to spend the summer. You need to apply to schools and be accepted before you can then get a student visa. You then need to apply to jobs and be accepted before getting a working visa. I understand changing visas is not always all that easy, but people do it every day

FYI, there is no Working Holiday agreement between Japan and Sweden.

Oh, well that will make it a little more difficult then.
