​To describe actions or events that happened at an unspecified time in the past or that have relevance to the present moment.

Actions or events that started in the past and continue into the present: For example, "I have lived in this city for five years."

Actions or events that have just been completed: For example, "He has just finished his dinner."

When talking about life experiences, the present perfect is often used. For example, "I have traveled to Japan." This implies that at some point in your life, you went to Japan, but it doesn't specify exactly when.

​Unspecified time in the past: When the time of the action or event is not specified or not important, the present perfect is used. For example, "She has read that book."

​Repeated actions up to the present moment: When emphasizing the duration or frequency of actions up to now, the present perfect is used. For example, "I have eaten sushi many times."
