Entry of Foreign Nationals into Japan

Nice to meet you. I have a question regarding the entry of a foreign national's family member into Japan.

A family member of a Japanese permanent resident (with re-entry permit) is currently in the US and will be returning to Japan for the summer vacation. Due to immigration restrictions, I understand that a visa is required for foreigners to travel to Japan, but is it the same for permanent resident foreigners? You should contact the embassy, but if anyone knows, I would like to know.

Thank you very much.

According to the following website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
https://www.mofa.go.jp/mofaj/ca/fna/page4_005130.html#section10
https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/content/001347330.pdf
It states that an application for a VISA is required "except in the case of re-entrants. It also states that aliens with a re-entry permit "have special circumstances." This means that permanent residents and re-entry permit holders should be able to enter the country. Of course, as with Japanese nationals, you will need to download an application and other documents to prove that you are corona-negative. Please check with the consulate / embassy if possible.

Has anyone resigned while in Japan ?
I am thinking of resigning soon as I am fed up with the relationships.
I would appreciate it if you could tell me how and when to inform the parent company in Japan of my resignation.

I don't know how or when to inform the parent company, but in many cases I hear from expatriates that they receive benefits and support in various aspects, so it might be a good idea to be prepared for when that is no longer the case. If you are returning to Japan, I don't think it matters, but if you are staying in the US after leaving the company, I think the conditions will be quite different if you find a job locally. Sorry for the unhelpful opinion.

I saw on the news that it was 37 degrees in Central Park.
Seattle ・ Portland, Canada is also over 40 degrees.

They are going to run out of electricity if they don't save power.

I guess I'll just have to take a dip in the pool or take a shower ・ ・ ・ ?
