When a disaster occurs, people who can no longer live safely in their homes take refuge in an ‘evacuation shelter’. Usually these shelters are set up in school gyms or community centers.

In an evacuation shelter, the local residents take a central role and important duties are divided up and carried out by everyone.

In accordance with the partial amendment of the Basic Resident Registration Act, foreign residents will be eligible to receive a Residence Record (jyuminhyou).

● Up until the new system comes into effect, any amendments you make to your registered details under the existing Alien Registration Act will be reflected on your Provisional Resident Record. Please ensure that you notify your local government of especially important matters, including changes to your status of residence and period of stay.

● Until the new system comes into effect, please continue to follow normal procedures based on the existing Alien Registration Act.
