Welcome to the r/movingtojapan bi-weekly(ish) simple questions thread! This is the place for all of your “easy” questions about moving to Japan. Basically if your question is about *procedure*, please post it here. Questions that are more subjective, like “where should I live?” can and should be posted as standalone posts. Along with procedural questions any question that could be answered with a simple yes/no should be asked here as well.
Some examples of questions that should be posted here:
* Certificate of Eligibility (CoE) processing times
* Visa issuance (Questions about visa *eligibility* can/should be standalone posts)
* Embassy visa processing procedures (Including appointments, documentation requirements, and questions about application forms)
* Airport/arrival procedures
* Address registration
The above list is far from exhaustive, but hopefully it gives you an idea of the sort of questions that belong in this post.
Standalone posts that are better suited to this thread will be removed and redirected here. Questions here that are better suited to standalone posts will be locked with a recommendation that you repost.
Please note that [the rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/movingtojapan/wiki/rules) still apply here. Please take a moment to read the wiki and search the subreddit before you post, as there’s a good chance your question has been asked/answered sometime in the past.
*This is not an open discussion thread, and it is not a place for unfounded speculation, trolling, or attempted humour.*
