and yes, i have been wrong on many occasions before. so you might be right in the end, that it can still be done at the local 市役所 or 区役所.
According to the Japanese news, they will be utilizing the Juki Net system to also register foreigners. As you can register with Juki Net at any city/town office I don`t see why they`d make you report to the already overloaded immigration offices. It`s a change in the system - instead of just sticking your info in the town/city computers, they stick it into the national system.

ETA; The reason for utilizing the Juki Net was listed as being that it was ALREADY in place at offices, so there would be no major cost to switch to it.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
