About Watari（渡り）
Watari (渡り) is operated by COSTA LINK株式会社, a company based in Fukuoka, Japan. We introduce foreign workers — primarily from Cambodia, and also Vietnam, Indonesia and Sri Lanka — to Japanese companies facing labor shortages, and we run this trilingual (Japanese / English / Khmer) platform, which also includes a directory of Japan-side registered support organizations.

Why we built it
Sending organizations abroad — especially in Cambodia — struggle to find and compare credible Japan-side partners in their own language. Watari brings these organizations into one searchable place, filterable by residence status, industry, region and supported language.
How our listings work
Many entries are compiled from publicly available information and are marked accordingly; verified entries are managed by the organizations themselves after they claim their listing. Unverified entries do not display private contact details. We do not fabricate organizations or contact information, and we welcome corrections.
