Mongolians in Japan (在日モンゴル人, Zainichi Mongorujin) represent only a small portion of emigration from Mongolia. In 2003, foreigner registration figures provided by Japan's Ministry of Justice showed 2,545 Mongolians in the country.[1] International students form a large proportion of the registered population of Mongolians. Japan and Mongolia officially agreed to send exchange students to each other in 1974, and the first such student from the Mongolian side arrived in Japan in 1976; as of May 2006, 1006 Mongolian students were studying in Japanese institutions of higher education.[2]
