To extend your period of stay or change your status of residence, please prepare all required documents for your visa application and bring them to the nearest International Student Office. As a general rule, the documents will be returned in 3 business days after the acceptance date, so please make sure to be prepared ahead of time.

·Please always check the period of stay and be careful not to overstay.
·If you extend your period of stay, "Permission to Engage in Activity Other than that Permitted under the Status of Residence Previously Granted" already obtained will be invalid, so please apply again if necessary.
