COE requirements

Hi there, i have few questions regarding coe requirements. My husband is a permanent visa in Japan. we were supposed to complete and arrange our papers. But there's one thing bothered us, do we need to translate our birth certificate and marriage contract in Japanese since it was written in english? Thank you!

Hello.

You have to submit the birth certificate and marriage contract document which are issued by official institution of your nationality.

You also have to attach those document translated into Japanese.

See the site below.

I'm also a Filipino and my wife is a long term residence in JPN we will also apply for my coe hopefully will be done next week .. Her immigration lawyer said that the documents will be translated in Japanese but the lawyer are also doing translation so we don't have a problem for that .. Hoping to have my coe I miss my wife so much..

By the way what documents did you have to apply for coe

hello there, so it will be a must to be translated. may i askmwhat documents you were passed to apply for the coe?

Marriage certificate
My birthcirtifcate
Cenomar
Her bank saving
Her Tax cert.
Her employment cer.
Letter from her agency stating that my job is ready when I arrive
Wedding pic.
And other supporting docs

why cenomar? you and her are married, then how come you get a copy of it? birth cert and marriage contract are translated in japanese? how long does it take when it was translated? how long have you been waiting for your coe?

supporting documents like what?

When u r married And u get cenomar it will indicate their that you are married to your husband both your name will appear in cenomar with the date of your wedding and this also serve as one of supporting documents ... Also a valid I'd like drivers license and passport.. For my supporting doc. I send my police clrnce and nbi clrnce for criminal records purpose.. translating the documents would be done from 2 to 3 days depending on the information...we haven't apply my coe but all the documents are on the lawyer now so he will be translating it then hopefully the lawyer will apply it next week :)

Some said that its good to have more documents when applying coe.for identification and the important is the authenticity of your marriage

how many copies of your documents had you sent to her? like the marriage contract itself?

The marriage . birth and cenomAr I send two copies each then the rest is just 1 copy
