J-LIS Document Printing: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Use your My Number Card to print resident certificates and seal registration documents at convenience stores instead of visiting a local office.

This service allows you to print official residency and registration documents using a multi-purpose card at local convenience stores.

The catch to know
