After you receive an acceptance letter, you have to apply for a Student Visa to enter Japan. A Certificate of Eligibility (CoE) is required for this application. UF will apply for your CoE as your proxy in Japan and will send it to you once it is issued. We strongly recommend that you promptly complete the following procedures as it takes approximately 1 month after the application in Japan. Please refer to the overall process for visa application that is explained at the bottom of this page. Also, please contact a Japanese diplomatic mission (embassy / consulate) in your country in advance to confirm what documents you are required to submit. Try to prepare them before the CoE issuance.
You are first required to submit an “Application for CoE” and other supporting documents, as below, to UF.
Please submit the data 1. – 6. to the following e-mail address:
International Affairs Division, University of Fukui
