【About the Specified Residence card】
2026/02/27

Foreigners living in Japan usually have both a Residence Card and a My Number Card.
Until now, they had to complete procedures separately at different government offices, which was very time-consuming.
From June 14, a new system will allow the Residence Card and the My Number Card to be combined.
This will make procedures easier and more convenient.
Life in Japan will become safer and more comfortable.
Be sure to learn about this system and use it wisely!
