Summary
A proposed revision to Japan's immigration law, approved by the Lower House on Tuesday, would allow the government to revoke the permanent residency status of foreign nationals who intentionally fail to pay taxes. This new clause adds tax evasion to a list of behaviors that can lead to the cancellation of residency status. The bill also includes a broader reform to replace the technical intern training program with a new system that permits foreign workers to switch employers and extend their stay in Japan. The bill is set to be debated in the Upper House later this week.
