Re: Health Insurance Japan.

It is for a family of 3 (Wife and baby)... So it seems in the realms of possibility by your post. Thank you for that. Something I need to either budget for if I can.

Health Insurance Japan.

Hello all.. 1st time posting and just needed a hand if anyone has any experience in Japan.

I have been offered a position in Tokyo the pay seems reasonable, plus they give extra for housing. But, my question is in regards to health insurance. They suggest to Budget 60000 yen per month for health insurance. Is this normal? Coming from a country that we pay a fraction of that per year I just wanted to see if I understood it correctly.


Thanks.
