Student Visa PhD Funds

Hi All,

What is the minimum requirement for funds for a 3 year PhD Japaenese immigration ask to issue a student visa. I have 2.5 million of personal savings and will receive financial support from my family.

My bank balance savings account is 2.58 million yen and i have a 40k full-time job. Will be starting PhD this year.

I am a privately-financed student.

​

Thanks

  1. 1.5m yen for 1 year of visa, basically. You can only get the visa for 1 year, and have to keep renewing it until you’re done. At each point of renewal, you’ll have to show 1.5m in your bank account.

  2. >and i have a 40k full-time job

    You won’t be having that job if you’re in Japan on a student visa though. Even if your employer is fine with you being fully remote the visa will require that you work no more than 28 hours per week.
