If you dream of working and living in Japan, the Japan Foundation Test for Basic Japanese (JFT-Basic) is one of the first steps to achieving that goal. This test is specially designed to measure your ability to use Japanese in everyday life, making it essential for those applying for the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) Visa.
In this guide, we’ll explain everything about the JFT-Basic test 2025, and why Global Peace Education is the perfect choice for your JFT preparation.
What is JFT-Basic?
The JFT-Basic (Japan Foundation Test for Basic Japanese) is a computer-based test (CBT) that evaluates if you can communicate in basic Japanese required for daily life and work in Japan.
