🏛️ City hall & paperwork· Minato 港区ExampleEither is fine

My Number card application — anyone done it recently at Minato ward office?

Booked an appointment at the Minato 区役所 for my My Number physical card pickup. Last time I went the line was crazy and I almost missed it. Anyone done this recently — what to expect?

🏛️ City hall & paperwork· Koto 江東区Example

I want to find someone to accompany me to the Koto Ward Office to apply for a change of residence status

To switch from a student visa to a work visa, you need to submit your documents at the Koto Ward Office next week. Japanese is only available for everyday conversation, and I can't understand technical terms. I hope friends who speak good Japanese can accompany me, and the thank-you gifts are negotiable.
