Enrolling in National Health Insurance
I am a dependent of a child working in Japan. Can I use health insurance?
In the company's social insurance program, you may be able to use health insurance as a dependent relative of someone who is covered by health insurance. The person supporting the dependent will consult with the employer.
Can I enroll in National Health Insurance although I am currently unemployed?
National Health Insurance is also available to foreigners without a job. Once enrolled, you need to pay a certain amount of money each month as an insurance premium. We recommend you complete the enrollment procedures for National Health Insurance together with the resident registration procedures.
We will update this website to provide accurate information, as it changes constantly.
