Summary
Japan's revised immigration control and refugee law, effective Monday, introduces major changes to the detention and deportation rules for foreigners without valid resident status. The amendment allows deportation for individuals who have applied for refugee status three or more times, unless they provide a valid reason. Previously, there was no limit on the number of applications, and some individuals abused the system to avoid deportation. As of the end of 2021, there were 1,629 individuals in this situation, with their applications still being processed. The revision aims to expedite the repatriation of foreigners staying illegally in Japan.
