What this document is
This paper replaces the exams: completing Technical Intern Training (ii) properly (roughly 2 years 10 months or more, no absconding, no violations) waives the Japanese requirement — and if your trade matches the Tokutei field, the skills exam as well. This document is the proof of that “successful completion”.
What it must show
- ① The evaluation record — form 参考様式第1-2号, signed by the supervising organisation or the training company
- or ② the Grade 3 trade-skills test certificate, PRACTICAL part
- or ③ a written statement on the training record
- The training period must be long enough (completing level ii ≈ 2 years 10 months or more)
- The trade (職種) and task (作業) on the paper must match item 20 you filled in the app
Where to get it
Request it from your supervising organisation (監理団体) or your former training company. The Grade 3 certificate is issued by the prefectural vocational-ability development association — ask them for a reissue if lost.
How to get it
- Message the supervising organisation: “Please issue the evaluation record (form 1-2) for my move to Tokutei.”
- Already hold the Grade 3 certificate? Just photograph it — no request needed
- Capture all four corners: your name, trade, issue date and seal must be readable
- If they refuse, explain it is a document Immigration requires; still refused → contact the law office in the app
Notes
⚠️ “Successful completion” is not the same as “I did some training”. Absconding, an interrupted contract, or not finishing level ii means NO waiver — you then take the exam route.
