By law you must have present it to get your next job and by law for ex-employeer must issue it.

It really sucks to have to grovel to ask for this certificate weeks after you quit or got fired. Even though your -ex-boss is required to issue it, many times they don't automatically offer it to foreigners as they do to all Japanese.
