RAKUVISA Inc. announced that starting June 2026, its visa application SaaS platform RakuVisa will offer a new AI document check feature to automatically detect errors and omissions in application documents. This feature is designed to support, not replace, the verification process by administrative scriveners. It targets all fields of the Specified Skilled Worker No. 1 status. The background includes the high legal risks for support organizations under the revised Administrative Scrivener Act (effective January 2026), alongside a new duty to digitize workflows. The background AI check automatically performs a rules-based completeness check and an AI content analysis (categorizing issues into critical errors, confirmations, and references) before administrative scriveners review. The system protects privacy by masking personal data (names, My Number, passport numbers) prior to AI analysis, processing all data locally in Tokyo servers without utilizing it for AI model training. The company has filed a patent application (No. 2026-083336) for its collaborative application check and privacy protection system. RakuVisa has previously received a gray-zone clarification confirming compliance with the Administrative Scrivener Act.
