E-7 covers 87 Ministry of Justice-designated occupation categories across several sub-visa types (E-7-1 professionals, E-7-3 skilled trades, E-7-4 a points-based manufacturing/regional category with its own national quota) — your academic major and career experience must match one of these categories exactly, not just broadly.
