World Unite!

Everyone is welcome to participate in our programs. However, please note that certain visa restrictions may apply to specific nationalities, especially for our Working Holiday programs in Japan, South Korea, Germany, and Ireland. We kindly ask you to contact us about these programs only if your nationality is eligible for a suitable visa.

For Working Holiday programs, the minimum age is 18. Some internships and volunteer placements are possible from 16. Remote programs are possible from 14. If you are not yet 18, we need the signature of your legal guardian indicating their approval of your stay abroad and taking responsibility for your actions there.

There is no maximum age, except for Working Holiday visas, which have a maximum age limit (30/35).

While there are some differences between the individual programs, overall approximately 40% of participants are native English speakers (from the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand), 30% are German-speaking (from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland), 25% are from other European countries, and 5% from other parts of the world.

In Japan, we are the leading provider of Working Holiday support services, offering walk-in support offices in Tokyo and Kyoto, orientation programs, job placement services, and social and cultural events and activities.
