From the September 2025 daycare fees, based on Tokyo's own policy, daycare fees became ¥0 for all children enrolled at daycare centers and similar. For classes aged 3 and over, usage fees are free under national free childcare, but parents pay meal costs to each daycare center. For low-income households and third and later children, the side-dish cost is waived, and at daycare centers in the city the city also pays the staple food cost.
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.

Notes
Side-dish cost waiver: children in households with a municipal income-based resident tax amount under ¥57,700 (under ¥77,101 for single-parent households and similar), and third and later children among preschool children.
