Do construction trades count as "skilled people" in the immigration context in Japan? Usually when I hear "skilled" in that context I think of doctors and PhD researchers.



Not for the visa I linked but there are a lot of foreigners working construction and assembly lines on other visa types. I think it’s generally managed by some kind of labour company and the jobs are mostly low wage.

I wanted to double check so I googled it and found this, looks like there’s new visas for things like construction: https://www.mofa.go.jp/files/000459527.pdf
