¥3,000 per dose, up to 2 doses, from age 1 to before elementary school (expanded in FY2026)

For the mumps vaccine, which is a "voluntary vaccination" rather than a routine one, this program subsidizes the cost for children living in Meguro City aged 1 to 6 (until before elementary school) at ¥3,000 per dose, up to 2 doses. Households receiving public assistance and households receiving support payments for Japanese left behind in China and similar are fully subsidized. From April 1, 2026, coverage was expanded from ages 1 to under 4 to until before elementary school, and the number of doses subsidized increased from 1 to 2. Mumps is an infection that can cause complications such as meningitis and hearing loss. When vaccinated at a medical institution contracted with the city, the subsidy is deducted at the counter. Vaccinations given to children aged 4 to 6 by March 31, 2026 are not covered. A pre-vaccination questionnaire issued by the city is required. The questionnaire for the 1st dose is sent at the end of the month before the first birthday, and for the 2nd dose at the end of March just before the child enters the final year of kindergarten.
