Shinagawa City subsidizes up to ¥50,000 of the out-of-pocket cost of general fertility treatment such as tests, timing therapy and artificial insemination. 10/10 of the couple's combined out-of-pocket medical costs is covered, and there is no income limit. It covers legally married couples in which the wife is 40 or older and under 43 on the start date of testing or treatment. Common-law couples are also covered, and you are advised to ask the city about the requirements and required documents before starting. Both partners must also have received testing or treatment. Because the Tokyo subsidy covers those under 40, the city takes on the age group above that. The subsidy is only once. Apply within 1 year counting from the start date of testing or treatment. If there are unavoidable circumstances, applications are accepted until 3 months after the day 1 year has passed.
