FAQ

Which procedures is this app for?

The app supports submission photos used in applications and residence procedures that involve a residence card. Exact document requirements still differ by procedure, so please check the latest Immigration Services Agency guidance before submitting.

Are there cases where a photo is not required?

Yes. Depending on the procedure, some applicants such as children under 16 may not need to submit a photo. Online guidance also mentions a placeholder file for applicants who do not need a face photo, so please confirm the exact procedure.

Can anyone use online application?

No. Eligibility for online application depends on the applicant's role, age, and procedure type. There are age-based restrictions for applications filed by the foreign national themselves, and only certain procedures are supported.

Does the app guarantee acceptance?

No. The app helps you prepare a submission photo, but it does not guarantee acceptance. The final decision is made by the Immigration Services Agency of Japan or the relevant office.

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. Importing photos, face detection, background adjustments, and export generation all happen on your iPhone. Purchases use Apple's StoreKit, but photo data is not part of payment processing.

Can I print or re-export later?

Yes. The app can save an L-size print layout and shows printing guidance inside the app. Re-export availability depends on the purchase option and the data still stored on your device.
