Some applicants pursue Japan’s Business Manager Visa for the status, not the lifestyle. But without genuine commitment to living and working in Japan, getting permanent residency becomes nearly impossible.

Before setting up your company or investing 5 million yen, ask yourself: Do I actually want to live in Japan? Your time commitment and interest in local business life determine whether your visa, and your success, will last.

Since Japan’s property crash in the 1990s, one lesson stands above all: cash flow is everything. Investors now focus on steady occupancy and rental growth every two years to ensure long-term value and profitability.
