The Requirement record is the source of truth; unspecified values are not filled in.
- The Japan study page requires the letter of acceptance issued by a German university / language school / college (including the language of instruction), original and one copy.
- The portal per-file size cap is confirmed in the official record: within 10 MB.
- The portal accepts PDF / JPG / PNG (the uploadEnvelope is authoritative). Multi-page documents are officially required to be PDF, and this record's artifact family is PDF.
- Page count, minimum size, colour, and page ranges are not specified by the authority; the in-portal "Your documents" checklist is only visible after signing in, so its contents remain UNKNOWN.
