Can anyone help with the following question: Do I need a degree to obtain a working visa?
I have been to the Japanese embassy website (uk) and have read all the information regarding visas, however it does not mention that a Degree is required to be able to obtain a Certificate of Eligibility, in order to obtain a working visa.
However, it seems like a Degree is required if you wish to work in Japan as an English teacher (or any other job?). Or is having a degree just a pre-requisite of the employer?
Also, if it is just a question of obtaining a Certificate of Eligibility, can I ask a friend/their family to be my sponsor/guarantor?
If someone could clarify, It would mean a great deal to me!

You should have a degree. Only people who have been working in a industry for a long time (10+ years) may get away without one. I believe it will be a pre-requisite for most employers because of Visa purposes.
You really need need a job before applying, you can get someone to sponsor you but its a lot of red tape as well. They have to have a lot of asset in their bank or a business or something. As for using friend to sponsor you they have to have a really high income.
I'm from London, so when getting my visa was very easy as long as I had a degree.

I have never looked in to it, but my understanding is that you pretty much need a degree to get a working Visa for Japan.
One big exception to this is if you are of Japanese descent. Japan has recently made it easier for people of Japanese descent to work in Japan (which has brought a lot of Brazilians to Japan).

The document that I ran into didn't clarify that either, although it did outline separate processes for those with a degree from a technical school（専門学校) and for those with a bachelor's (or higher), which seems to indicate that you don't necessarily need a college degree to apply for a work visa in Japan. It may depend upon the type of work you want to do, though.
They also allow you to get a Engineering visa (from the US anyway) if you have 10 years of work experience in a technical field. Although you are probably too young to qualify for that. If a large company really wants you there, the Government will generally defer to them despite the lack of a degree, but that's a long shot too. Students are often allowed to work part time, and since you may want to take Japanese language courses anyway, that may be your best bet.
