Tourists visiting Japan will no longer be allowed to take the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) in the country from 2026, organizations that administer the exam have announced.
The administrators said applicants in Japan will, in principle, be required to hold a mid- to long-term residence status or special permanent residency under the country’s residence management system, and must provide a residence card number and expiration date when applying.
The JLPT is the largest scale Japanese-language test in the world.
