Major hospitality markets include Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Okinawa and Hokkaido. Japanese workplace culture values punctuality, courtesy, teamwork, cleanliness and respect for hierarchy. Life offers excellent public transport, safety, healthcare and varied food, although housing and living costs can be high in Tokyo. Foreign workers generally need an appropriate residence status, such as an Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services visa or another work category suited to the position. The employer normally provides documentation for the Certificate of Eligibility, but sponsorship is not guaranteed and should be confirmed before accepting an offer. Applicants should budget for housing deposits, transport and initial living expenses, and arrange health insurance and residence registration after arrival. Japanese language ability is especially valuable in hotel kitchens and daily life.
