I understand. Please share your handover plan early.

Gesture & etiquette

Hand the printed 退職届 (sealed in a plain white envelope labeled '退職届' on the front) directly to the manager with both hands. Deep bow (30°). Stay standing unless invited to sit. Steady tone — never apologetic body language.

退職届 (resignation letter) is delivered formally, typically 1-3 months ahead per company policy + minimum 14 days per Japanese labor law. '一身上の都合' (personal circumstances) is the standard reason — never give detailed reasons in the letter even if asked. Hand directly to your manager first (never email first, never go to HR before your manager). Handover documents expected within 2-4 weeks.
