You have to be a resident to open an account with a local broker.

Nonresidents can't open any (even cash) kind of stock trading account. The only account a nonresident can open here is one to trade commodities.

That's true, but I understood you to mean that you were looking for a Japanese broker as IB doesn't offer shorting for Japanese stocks.
