Japan Job and Career Prospects

Can I work off-campus while studying in Japan?

There is no restriction as such on working away from your campus. However, you should be aware of the jobs and companies you are working under. There are a lot of frauds and fake agents who may lure you into getting more pay than the basic amount and trap you into illegal affairs. As per law, you are allowed to work for 28 hours per week, so work under legal guidance (permitted from the Ministry of Justice) at a place possibly near your house and university.
