From October 2026, you can receive postpartum checkups (2 times, around 2 weeks and 1 month after childbirth) and the 1-month infant checkup with Tokyo-wide common vouchers. If you had them outside Tokyo (such as where you stayed with family) on or after October 1, 2026, apply at the 3–4-month infant checkup, in the same building as the checkup venue, to get part or all of the cost refunded. The subsidy is capped at ¥5,000 per postpartum checkup (up to 2 times) and ¥6,000 for the 1-month infant checkup; any amount above is paid by you.

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.

Who is eligible

Pregnant and postpartum women and infants in Tachikawa City (vouchers are given with the Maternal and Child Health Handbook to people who submitted a pregnancy notification in or after April 2026, and were sent on September 18 to people who submitted it by March and gave birth on or after August 21)

Notes

The 1-month infant checkup is from 28 to 41 days after birth (for premature babies and similar, it can be by corrected age if a doctor instructs). Document fees and similar are not covered.
