Passport required if have Permanent Residency? -
07-07-2015, 07:17 PM
Hi, I have Permamenyt Residency valid until 2021, and the card was issued to me in July of 2014. I think I remember taking my passport, which had already expired in May 2014 to show my Permanent Residency Stamp in my passport when I got my Residency card, so I don't think a valid passport is necessary, but I was just wanted to make sure as I have a couple potential employers who ask to see scans on my passport photo page (showing my passport has expired) and the Permanent Residency Stamp in my passport.
On the Japan immigration website, it says they will no longer put visa stamps in passports of mid to long term residents. I think the only time I need a valid passport is if I'm traveling outside Japan, and so I don't think I need a passport until next year after March. Can anyone confirm if I need a passport now or not?

That's what I stated in my OP and thought. I called immigration and asked them, and after they consulted some other people, told me it wasn't necessary to have a valid passport to stay in Japan, cause I have permanent residency.
