How to register your katakana name?

Can I go to the city hall and register how I would want my Katakana name to be spelled? Would they be able to put it on the back of my residence card?

  1. You might be able to get it registered as an alias to go on your my number card, but it won’t go on your residence card (I did this many years ago when they still put it on the old foreigner registration card, the system may have changed but back the you needed something demonstrating that you use the alias you want to register)
