The Immigration Bureau announced on the 2nd that IT (information technology) engineers working for overseas companies will create a qualification that will make it easier for them to stay in Japan. A new residence status that allows you to stay for 6 months will be newly established. Incorporate the demand of foreigners who want to work remotely regardless of location while sightseeing in Japan.

Does anyone have more details on the qualifications requirements?
Also interested in how taxation will work.
