OK if you are going to the Immigration Office on or after the 25th Dec 2007, click to read this post instead. The office is moving to the Nanko area.

I had to renew my visa recently so I decided to take a video of how to get to the Immigration Office in Osaka. If you can’t view the videos, it is still fairly easy to explain.
First go to the Tanimachi 4-Chome station (T23/C18) which is on both the Chuo line (Dark Green) and the Tanimachi line (Purple). Go to exit 1A. Go out and you’ll see the main street. Turn right and walk up the street for about 7 minutes, passing Cafe Veloce, Coco’s Curry, Hattori Automobile, Lawson, McDonalds and Starbucks (in that order).
The video I split into two parts, the first part is from the Chuo line platform to Exit 1A, and the second one is from the exit to the Immigration Office.

Glad, it was useful. I hear the office is moving sometime in December. Will try to post new directions when it does. If you need any info or have any questions, you can drop me a line anytime.

Thank you very much!!! It’s always difficult to find anything… It was so great when it was near the Osaka castle…
