When you answer the city's childcare questionnaire
Households with a child who has reached their 1st birthday are given points that can be exchanged for childcare-related goods. For children born in April 2025 or later, it is ¥60,000 worth for the first child, ¥70,000 worth for the second, and ¥80,000 worth for the third and later. The condition for receiving them is to answer the childcare questionnaire sent by the city. The questionnaire is to understand the child's development and the family's situation and connect you with the support you need; information on the points arrives after you answer. Children registered as residents of Sumida City on their 1st birthday are eligible. A separate notice is available for households that moved to Sumida City partway.
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.
