Bank loans in Japan

Most if not, all bank loans requires a permanent residency in your residence card. I tried applying with my spouse visa and only got 1 company to approve my application which is Aiful, a sarakin loan. 17% up to 300k, after a year it'll be up to 500k @ 20% if above 300k is borrowed.

They also will ask about your work, how long you been in the same company, how big is your salary per year, how many people are living with you, total home income, other loans like cars, house, credit cards, other sarakin loans.

Payment options are either convenience store atm, or auto deduct from your bank account which is convenient and no atm fees and hassle.

If you pay earlier than the scheduled date, 1month ahead you get almost 0% interest! As the days goes by, it will slowly come to a full 18% interest rate.

After you pay, the amount minus the interest can be borrowed again. Example, your max loan is 30man, you took 30man, paid for 3mos 11k/mo, minus interests, you can take out 3mos worth of paid loan again! But this is just digging your self a deeper and deeper hole in your pocket as you will forever be giving them 18%!

I suggest you find a stable job, stay there for at least 6mos, get a visa with 3yrs expiration or 1yr renewable will do as for my spouse visa had a 1yr validity when i first converted it but still was approved by the loaner. Just make sure you're able pay for the next 2yrs because you can be blacklisted and never get even a car loan or a housing loan until you're paid and clean again.

Thank you for this. I tried to get a loan after getting a job here and was rejected. Even for a credit card. You need to have lived in the country for at least 6 months before you can think about getting anything like that. The interest rate sounds really high though. What kind of job do you have?
