If a person with a status of residence of "Spouse or Child of Japanese National(SCJN)" divorces a Japanese spouse, it is necessary to change to another status of residence.
Foreigners who are married to a Japanese national and have a status of residence of "Spouse or Child of Japanese National(SCJN)" are not allowed to continue to stay with the same status of residence after divorcing the Japanese spouse.
If a foreigner wishes to continue to stay in Japan after divorcing a Japanese national, he / she must change to another status of residence.
One of them is the change of status of residence to "Long-Term Resident(LTR)" .
In order for this status of residence of "Long-Term Resident(LTR)" to be recognized, the following is required.
① The foreigner must have had a normal marital relationship between marriage and divorce.

③ It is necessary for the foreigner to have sufficient Japanese proficiency to carry out daily life.
If the above conditions are difficult, you should consider changing to another status of residence.
