Greeting from representive

Thank you for visiting our homepage.
I am Masayoshi Chigira, the Administrative notary and Tsutsuji International Legal Office representative.

After graduating from university and starting a sales job at a major brokerage firm, I obtained a Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist qualification and worked at Gunma prefecture Ota city’s International Gyosei-shoshi Law office. The cases involved local and foreign nationals’ visa applications and international marriage, permanent residence, naturalization applications, incorporation of enterprise, etc.
Subsequently, I established a Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist Tsutsuji International Legal Office in my hometown; Tatebayashi City, Gunma prefecture. We now carry out visa representation application services for 750 cases a year.

Recently in Japan, a lack of human resource has become a serious problem. There is a real need for foreign nationals- such as you viewing this homepage! We will fully support and facilitate everyone to stay in Japan for as long as possible and have a prosperous life. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any visa issues or concerns. Thank you.
