5.Receive the Results

We will contact you when our office receives the result by email or postcard.

6.Pick up your Residence Card

For an Application for Change of Status of Residence or an Application for Extension of Period of Stay, the new residence card must be collected from the Immigration Services Agency.

At the client’s request, our office can collect the new residence card on the client’s behalf. In this case, we will need to keep the client’s current residence card and passport temporarily. If the relevant immigration office is located far from our office, additional transportation expenses will be charged.

A fee is payable for the issuance of a new residence card. A substantial increase in this fee has been announced from October 2026. The amount of the fee will vary depending on the period of stay granted.
