Housing Compensation

Japan Educational Exchanges and Services "comprehensive renters insurance for foreign students studying in Japan"

A guarantor is required for occupancy when renting a private apartment or condominium. By joining this compensation system, foreign students can reduce the mental and financial burden of the guarantor. This makes it easier for the guarantor to sponsor the student. In addition, the combined overseas travel insurance also covers everyday liability and residual disability due to injury from an accident. For more information, please contact the Academic Affairs Division or International Exchange and Student Affairs Division
