In visa applications, a "guarantor" is a person who assures the head of a diplomatic mission abroad (Japanese ambassador, consul general, etc.) that the stay of the foreign visa applicant in Japan will be lawful. The responsibility of the guarantor does not carry legal liability as in the case of a "guarantor" under civil law but is limited to a moral obligation. However, if it is deemed that the guaranteed matters (living expenses, return travel expenses, and compliance with laws and regulations) are not fulfilled, it is only natural that the person's credibility will be compromised in any subsequent visa applications where they act as a guarantor. Nevertheless, whether one is a guarantor or an inviter, if they create documents that falsify their relationship with the visa applicant or the purpose of the visit, leading indirectly to the entry of terrorists or involvement in crimes such as human trafficking, they may be subject to criminal liability. Please be cautious.
