Quite interesting, how this law technicality works!
>Japan, like many other nations, does not recognize the current Taliban government of Afghanistan, which seized control of the country in 2021. This means that the girl was born in Japan during a period when, in the eyes of the Japanese government, her parents are stateless and have no nationality. Under Japan’s Nationality Law, a child born in such a situation is considered to have Japanese nationality.

If I adopted a Japanese kid in Japan as a foreigner. Would that allow me to apply for a long term visa to raise them in Japan?
