Response to COVID-19 for foreigners in Japan

The spread of COVID-19 is occurring all over the world, and the number of infected people in Japan is also increasing daily. To prevent the spread of infection, it is essential that everyone living in Japan take appropriate preventive measures based on accurate information, and ensure equal access to information and medical care for everyone.

As globalization progresses, many foreigners are living in Japan, including students, technical intern trainees, workers, immigrants, etc. If foreigners in Japan are limited in their access to necessary information and medical care due to language barriers and socio-economic instability, the spread of infection throughout Japan and major social losses will be unavoidable.

Therefore, we request the cooperation of those who accept foreigners in Japan (companies, schools, local government consultation centers, medical institutions) so that foreigners in Japan can have the information they need and access to medical care. Below is information for those accepting foreigners, foreigners in Japan, and supporters.

Infectious diseases do not discriminate based on race or nationality. Let's overcome this situation together, with cooperation and compassion from all people living in Japan.
