Personal seal registration applications

Obtain proof of registration by first bringing your personal seal to the City Office and registering it. Personal seal registration may be undertaken by Shibuya residents who have completed resident registration procedures and are 15 years of age or over. Applications should be made in person with the seal that is to be registered and a form of personal identification such as your residence card/special permanent resident certificate. After registration procedures have been completed you will receive a registration card, which should be kept in a safe place as it will be needed in order to apply for proof of registration. The registration fee is ¥100.

Precautions regarding personal seals

  1. Please be sure to call for more information, as there are various restrictions on the type of imprint that can be registered.
  2. Seals that show your vocation, credentials, or items other than your name may not be registered.
  3. Seals made of rubber or other materials that can easily be altered may not be registered.
  4. Seals whose impressions are smaller than 8 mm × 8 mm or larger than 25 mm × 25 mm may not be registered.
