在留資格の変更
Changing Status of Residence
転職
In case of change in occupation
在留資格の変更を伴う場合は、出入国在留管理庁の許可が必要です。例えば、「技術・人文知識・国際業務」の在留資格を持って働いていた人が転職し、大学等で「教育」の在留資格で働くといった場合です。認められた在留資格と同一の在留資格の活動の範囲で転職する場合は、事前に出入国在留管理庁に許可を求める必要はありませんが、この転職に問題があるかどうかについて出入国在留管理庁からの確認を得たい場合には、新たな事業所にかかる関係資料を添えて「就労資格証明書」の交付を申請することができます。就労資格証明書には「○○会社における○○の活動は上記（在留資格）に該当する」旨の記載がなされます。転職により所属機関が変わる場合には、その変更が生じた日（退職日、入社日）から各々14 日以内に出入国在留管理庁に届け出ることとなっており、届出が遅れると20 万円以下の罰金が科される可能性があります。
Permission is needed from the Immigration Services Agency when a change of occupation will affect the status of residence. For instance, a person, whose status is “Specialist in Technologies/ Humanities/ International Services,” gives up his/her job and begins to teach at a college with the status of “Instructor,” requires permission to change status. It is not necessary to file previously with the Immigration Services Agency an application for change of status when a person takes up other employment, if the activity comes under the same status as already held. However, if the person concerned feels some anxiety on his/her change in occupation, he/she may file an application for the certificate of authorized employment, for the purpose of confirmation by submitting the documents showing the details of a new working place. The certificate of authorized employment states “The XX activities at company XX correspond to the above (resident status).” When a foreign national changes jobs and thus employers, he or she must notify the Immigration Services Agency within 14 days of the day of such changes. Otherwise, the foreign national may be fined up to ¥200,000.
就労できない在留資格からの就職
Prospective employees with residential status that does not allow work
An application for changing status of residence is required when a student under a “college student” status hopes to be employed in Japan after his/her graduation (Article 20, Immigration Control Act). In principle, a foreign national with the status of a “temporary visitor” can not become employed. He/she should leave Japan in order to get a new visa at a Japanese embassy or legation abroad. Then the foreign national will be able to
re-enter with a suitable visa for his/her proposed activity. However it is possible to change the status of residence, based on social status or relationship. An example is that when a foreigner, whose status does not allow employment, changes his/her status to “Spouse or Child of Japanese National” as a result of getting married to a Japanese national, it is not necessary to leave Japan for a new visa.
