Everyone who supports a residency status
connected safely.
Foreign nationals, employers, registered support organizations and immigration lawyers. RakuVisa is the platform where each party shares only the information their role requires, from the application through day-to-day support. It also connects directly to the Immigration Services Agency by API.
Consultations and quotes are free. We can walk you through it online in 30 minutes.
Everyone involved, in their proper role
For the same person's residency, responsibilities and visible information differ by role.
Meet every obligation that comes with hiring
Applications and renewals, quarterly periodic notifications and ad-hoc notifications on hiring - with the support organization and the lawyer in the same place.
For employers → Registered support organizationKeep support records as evidence
Support plans, interview records and periodic notifications in one place. The history carries over even when the person in charge changes.
For support organizations → Immigration lawyerHandle your cases within your professional remit
Run applications for several clients in parallel, in an environment where permissions are separated so that licensed work stays with the licensed professional.
For lawyers → Foreign nationalsUnderstand your own case in your own language
Check your application from your phone. Available in 11 languages, so you can read and understand the documents before you sign them.
For foreign nationals →Taking on one person involves all of these parties
Hand-offs that used to be split across email, paper and spreadsheets are joined into a single line.
The hire is decided
Register the person you are hiring. If support is outsourced, the registered support organization joins here.
The application is prepared
Documents are generated from the registered data. AI checks for omissions and a licensed professional reviews the content.
The person reviews and signs in their own language
Before submission the person reads the content in their own language. Nothing proceeds without their understanding.
Submit, and keep going after work starts
Submitted to the Immigration Services Agency by API. Once work starts, support records and periodic notifications build up on the same data.
The same case, seen through each party's permissions
The employer sees its own people, the support organization sees those it supports, the lawyer sees the cases it has accepted. Nobody sees another organization's information.
Because everyone is connected, the boundaries are drawn carefully
Residency information is sensitive personal data that shapes a person's life. Who cannot see what comes first in our design.
Records from a previous employer do not follow a job change
A new employer never sees records from the previous one. The previous employer keeps access to the period the person was with them.
Work that requires a licence is done by those who hold it
In line with the Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist Act, preparation of documents is designed to be carried out by the lawyer and the host organization. Application documents are never completed by a registered support organization alone.
An official API connection with the Immigration Services Agency

Confirmed through the government's grey-zone clarification system (official reply dated 6 February 2025).A national scheme under the Industrial Competitiveness Enhancement Act has confirmed that providing this system does not constitute preparation of documents under the Certified Administrative Procedures Legal Specialist Act.Details on legal compliance →
