Hello,
I applied for an engineering visa CoE, it’s been a month now, and right now it’s not possible for me to return to my country, and I am in a foreign country, basically going from one country to another until I get my CoE, and I read online that it isn’t possible to apply from a foreign country except for special cases, does anyone know anything about this? I really don’t want to lose the chance to go to Japan like this.

**Is it possible to apply for a visa using CoE in a foreign country?**

Generally speaking you need to be a legal resident of the country where the Japanese embassy/consulate that you wish to use is located.
However some of them have been known to make exceptions. You would need to contact them yourself and see if they’ll accept a visa application from you.
I originally got mine in a country other than my one of citizenship, but I was a resident there
