Shinjuku City subsidizes some voluntary vaccinations that are not routine vaccinations. For mumps, children can receive 1 dose for an out-of-pocket ¥3,000 from age 1 until the fiscal year before starting elementary school (the first March 31 on or after the day they turn 6) (waived on application for households receiving public assistance and similar). The pre-vaccination questionnaire arrives late in the month the child turns 11 months, and can be used at medical institutions designated by the city and some medical institutions in neighboring cities.

The HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine for males is free for males from the first day of the fiscal year in which they turn 12 to the last day of the fiscal year in which they turn 16 (equivalent to 6th grade of elementary school to the 1st year of high school). It can only be received at designated medical institutions in Shinjuku City; elsewhere you pay the full cost.
