Au pair in Japan -
06-04-2008, 08:28 PM
Hello ; )
I'm 17 year old Norwegian girl and my plan is to work as an Au pair in Japan next year( July 2009-2010). I have already found a family that would love to have me as their Au pair, so almost everything is settled, except the most important part. I heard that japan don't have an Au pair system? So that Norwegian Au pair's won't get certificate of right of abode residence permit in Japan(or what to call it)..and then I read on the internet about the different VISA's I need and blablabla, and then it got kind of difficult, and my mom won't help me because it's one year in the future, and I know, I have a lot of time to figure it out. But I'm getting really nervous since I feel like I need to have everything clear. So if anyone know something about this? anything? I would be soooo happy

I'm not familiar with Au pair programs (although I know what they are).
You might want to talk to the Japanese consulate in your country. They would have the best information regarding this. From what I've gathered, the only way to do an Au pair in Japan is if you are from a country which has a Working Holiday agreement with Japan - Norway is not one of them. You do need a visa to do work in Japan (and to stay in Japan for longer than 90 days), and they aren't exactly easy to get most of the time. As I said, the Japanese consulate would be the best source of information.

I have never heard of an Au pair system in Japan. I recommend calling the nearest embassy or consulate and seeing if that Japanese family can act as a sponsor for you, as Hatredcoptor said.
