For households that answered the municipality's questionnaire or interview
When the child is around 1 or around 2 years old, households that answer the municipality's questionnaire or interview receive a housework and childcare package gift. The amounts shown by TMG are worth ¥60,000 for the first child, ¥70,000 for the second child, and ¥80,000 for the third and later children.
The municipalities actually hand them out, and the conditions and amounts differ by municipality. Check the page of the municipality where you live. Some municipalities give the gift in a form that can be used on TMG's dedicated Akachan First site.
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.
