JFT-Basic Mock Tests
Develop your practical Japanese communication skills through structured practice designed around the everyday and workplace language you will need as a Specified Skilled Worker in Japan.
What Is JFT-Basic?
An independent explanation — not an official statement from the Japan Foundation.
JFT-Basic — the Japanese Foundation Test for Basic Japanese — is a computer-based examination that assesses whether a candidate can communicate in Japanese in everyday and workplace situations. It is commonly required as part of the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) immigration pathway for international workers wishing to work in Japan.
The test evaluates practical language ability across listening, reading, and expressive use of Japanese — not academic grammar or literary proficiency. This focus on real-world communication makes targeted, practical preparation particularly valuable.
Registration, schedules, fees, eligibility, testing locations, pass thresholds, and retake rules can change. Do not rely on third-party sources — including this website — as your authoritative source for these details. Visit https://www.jpf.go.jp/jft-basic/ for current official guidance.
