Understand the SSW system properly
If you want to go to Japan on an SSW Visa, you must understand the SSW visa system. Japan introduced this visa due to worker shortages in Japan. The program welcomes skilled foreign workers to Japan. Bangladeshi skilled workers are officially accepted for this program.
There are two types of the SSW visa: SSW Type 1 and SSW Type 2. SSW Type 1 allows working in selected industries of this program. The duration of staying in Japan under this visa is up to five years. Within these five years, family sponsorship is not permitted.
After completing the tenure of SSW Type 1, candidates can move to SSW Type 2. In this type, candidates can extend their visas for the next five years, and their spouse can enter Japan. SSW Type 2 allows for a long-term stay in Japan, provided the terms and conditions of Japan are followed.
“To go to Japan, you must pass language and skill exams. At Achieve Japan, we guide you before investment and provide the knowledge to protect you.”
Eligibility requirements for Bangladeshi candidates
Eligibility is the first step to understanding what Bangladeshi candidates need to do to get an SSW Visa. There is no strict age limit for the candidates. The ideal age for getting an SSW visa is 18 to 35 years. A good health condition is also required for getting a visa in the SSW program.
For an SSW visa, higher education is not required. Skill matters more than education level. Not all the sectors of the SSW program are available in Bangladesh. You must choose an available SSW sector in Bangladesh.
Medical clearance and police clearance of the selected candidate are mandatory. We carefully evaluate your profile so that you don't face any last-minute hassles. Early assessment prevents rejection.
Japanese language preparation for Bangladeshi candidates
To get an SSW visa, having Japanese language skills is compulsory. For the SSW program, you must pass JLPT N4 or JFT A2 (Basic). These exams test your ability for daily communication. Without language proof, visa approval is impossible.
You must learn basic sentence structure and understand the terms of your workplace. Listening and speaking skills are crucial for building confidence with supervisors and understanding daily work.

Job matching and employer selection for Bangladeshi workers
A confirmed job offer is strictly required for getting an SSW visa. Japanese employers must sponsor you; individual applications are not allowed. This process is managed by Registered Support Organizations.
Beware of unlicensed agencies and fake job offers in Bangladesh. Achieve Japan and M/S Sanjana International work with verified employers, ensuring everything is done legally and transparently.
COE and visa process
After job confirmation, the employer applies for the COE (Certificate of Eligibility). Once approved, you can apply for the visa at the Japanese embassy.
In the embassy interview, honest answers are required. Once you get visa approval, you are allowed to enter Japan legally. We support you even after you arrive in Japan.
