Showing the certificate of eligibility at the time of visa application or immigration examination at an airport in Japan makes the process smoother. This means that the university in Japan that accepts you as an international student submits your information to the Immigration Bureau of Japan and verifies your admission to the university to obtain a certificate. The certificate sent to you makes the process of your visa application for study in Japan smoother. With the certificate of eligibility, your visa will be issued approximately one week after the application; whereas without it, it will take approximately one to three months for the visa application to be processed.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Application for certificate of eligibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Center for International Relations will arrange a proxy application for the \u201cCertificate of Eligibility\u201d on behalf of international students admitted to Muroran Institute of Technology, to help with their student visa acquisition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please send the documents (1) through (3) below to the Center of International Relations via the email link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>(1)\u3000Certificate of Eligibility Application Form<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>With reference to the example, please enter information in the specified form and submit is as Excel data.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"mark_excel\"><a href=\"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Application_for_certificate_of_eligibility.xls\">Application form<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\uff0f<span class=\"mark_pdf\"><a href=\"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/ExampleApplication_for_certificate_of_eligibility.pdf\">example<\/a><\/span><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(2)\u3000An ID photo of your face (JPEG)<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(3)\u3000A copy of your passport<br>        A copy of the first page (that contains your photo, passport number and name) of your passport is  required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Certificate of Eligibility Steps from application to a visa being issued To ente&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":646,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-674","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/674","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=674"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/674\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6309,"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/674\/revisions\/6309"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/646"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/u.muroran-it.ac.jp\/oia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=674"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
