FECYT issues a practical guide for spanish researchers in Japan

The Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology, in collaboration with the Spanish Researchers in Japan Society (ACE-Japón)  and with the Embassy of Spain in Tokyo are issuing a practical guide with relevant information for Spanish researchers that are planning to do work in Japan as researchers.

The guide offers information regarding visas, registries, housing, medical insurance, etc. Besides, it dedicates some chapters to the Japanese R&D system and the researcher career development in the country. At the end of the guide, the reader will find a few personal experiences of Spanish researchers working in Japan.

The project is part of the collaboration with the Spanish researchers associations abroad and with the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID). In 2014, FECYT already issued a practical guide for Spanish researchers working in the United Kingdom, in collaboration with the Spanish Researchers in United Kingdom (SRUK)
