办理海外迁入的手续需要时间。如果在结束前来的话,有可能无法办理手续,所以工作日的话,请在16点左右之前来。

＊We don’t close the window on break time, (between Noon - 14:00), although it will take longer as we work with few employees than regular hour.
中午到下午2点(午休)也受理,但是因为人数很少,所以需要一些时间。

＊When we are dealing with overseas transfers, we will have to search the residential cyber for your previous/current status. Since residential cyber“Juki Net”can only be operated between 9:00-17:00, on weekdays, if you come to Ward Office on Saturday, the response will be confirmed on the following business day. Therefore, although we can print the new address in the resident card, we cannot issue the copy of the resident certificate.
办理国外迁入时,必须要搜索住民基本登记册簿联网系统。住民基本登记册簿联网系统只能从星期一到星期五的上午9点到下午5点检索,所以星期六是第二天开门的确认。因此,在留卡上可以记载新地址,但是不能发行住民票的复印件。

这是为了减轻医疗费负担的保险制度。

It is necessary to have the insurance premiums paid depending on the period of submission. If you present the insurance card at the hospital/clinic reception, you will be charged 30% of medical expenses, instead of full amount. (If you do not join to the insurance, you will be responsible for full medical expense costs.)
根据加入的期间,需要支付保险费,但是在医院出示保险证的话,医疗费的负担是3成。(如果不加入保险的话,医院将全额负担医疗费。)
