The town pays ¥5,000 a month for each child from age 0 to junior high school (until the first March 31 on or after the day the child turns 15). Payments are made 3 times a year (August, December, April), each covering 4 months, to your designated account. The town does not send a notice, so once 1 year has passed after moving in, apply at the Welfare Division counter. Payments start from the month after you apply. It is for parents who have lived in the town continuously for 1 year with resident registration, live with the child, and mainly support the household (in principle, the recipient of the Child Allowance). If the parent or spouse has unpaid town taxes, National Health Insurance tax, after-school care fees, or similar, payments stop. The payment is taxable as miscellaneous income.

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.
