Using checkup vouchers, you can receive postpartum checkups (2 times) around 2 weeks and 1 month after birth, and the baby's 1-month checkup, partly paid with public funds. It is for people whose due date is on or after August 21, 2026, or who gave birth on or after August 21. Vouchers issued by a municipality in Tokyo can still be used after moving into the city. If you had a checkup on or before September 30, 2026, or at a medical institution outside Tokyo, apply afterward for a subsidy of the cost using the original receipt.
Nationality and residence status
The official page (checked in October 2026) sets no condition on nationality or residence status that we found. Eligibility follows the official conditions, not the language of this page; many programs require resident registration in the municipality.
Who is eligible
Mothers within 2 months after birth and babies aged 28 to 41 days, registered as residents of Fuchu City on the checkup date (whose due date is on or after August 21, 2026, or who gave birth on or after August 21)

The vouchers are given together with the Maternal and Child Health Handbook. For checkups on or before September 30 or outside Tokyo, apply to the Child-Rearing Generation Comprehensive Support Center "Mirai" within 1 year of the checkup date.
