Summary

  • Adds a 2026-10 entry (category fees) to POLICY_EVENTS for the Application Processing chart. On 2026-10-01 the Immigration Services Agency raised residence application fees: extension/change of status went from a flat 6,000 yen to a tiered fee of up to 75,000 yen by granted period, and permanent residence went from 10,000 to 200,000 yen. This sets the actual amounts under the ceiling the existing act2026 entry raised.
  • Adds policy.feeRevision2026.title / .description to all twelve locales, and regenerates _template.ts with npm run i18n:template.
  • No RESIDENT_EVENTS entry. Earlier fee changes (2025-04, act2026) have no population-table marker either, since fees don't change who is counted.

Source: https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/content/001469200.pdf (ISA notice of the fee revision).

Follow-up from the policy events audit on #99. Not added yet because they are not in force: the SSW Type 2 five-year residency period (expected January 2027) and the tightened permanent-residence guideline (phased through April 2027).

Test plan

  • npm run lint
  • npm test (798 passing; the English title is worded so it doesn't substring-match the 2025 fee title that IntakeProcessingBarChart.test.tsx asserts is absent)
  • Non-English strings are my own translations; a native-speaker check is welcome
  • npm run typecheck and npm run build were not usable in my environment (TS 6 baseUrl deprecation error; src/buildInfo is generated), so please rely on CI for those

The Immigration Services Agency raised residence application fees on
2026-10-01 (extension/change of status now tiered up to 75,000 yen,
permanent residence 200,000 yen). Sets the actual amounts under the
ceiling the existing act2026 entry raised. No Resident Population marker,
matching how earlier fee changes are handled.
