Living and building a life in Japan can be incredibly rewarding, but anyone who has gone through visas, business registration, or immigration paperwork knows there are moments where things suddenly feel overwhelming.
During one of our more stressful periods, especially around our most recent visa renewal and the changing expectations surrounding Japan’s Business Manager Visa, we were fortunate to connect more deeply with Mark from 100KING.
For anyone unfamiliar, Mark has spent years helping entrepreneurs, founders, and people trying to establish themselves in Japan better understand the practical side of setting up businesses, navigating paperwork, and approaching long-term life in Japan.
When rules shift, expectations change, or immigration starts asking harder questions, having someone experienced who understands both the business side and the reality of living in Japan can make a huge difference.
In our case, Mark provided clarity during a time when things felt uncertain. He helped us better understand what Japan increasingly expects from Business Manager Visa holders, what needed to be strengthened, and how to think more strategically about our long-term setup in Japan.
What stood out most was not just information, but support.
There are plenty of people online talking about “moving to Japan,” but far fewer who genuinely understand the realities of building a business, maintaining legal status, and navigating the behind-the-scenes systems that come with staying here long term.
If you’re considering starting a business in Japan, dealing with Business Manager Visa questions, or simply trying to better understand how to structure things properly, we genuinely recommend checking out 100KING and the work Mark is doing.
We know firsthand how stressful these moments can feel, and having the right support at the right time matters.
