About various systems related to survivors support
Last Updated October 1, 2024
About affliction certificate (excluding fire)
In municipalities, based on the Disaster Countermeasures Basic Law, if there is damage to houses (buildings actually used for living) due to natural disasters such as storms, heavy rains, earthquakes, etc. We certify the degree of damage and issue it as a "disaster certificate".
The "Disaster Certificate" is a document to facilitate the procedure when receiving support provided by the government. Depending on various systems related to survivors support, a certificate of affliction may be required.
The degree of damage is based on a field survey by municipalities or a self-judgment method by the affected person. ※As a result, it is certified as one of the five categories: "completely destroyed", "large-scale partially destroyed", "half destroyed", "semi-destruction", and "not semi-destruction (partially damaged)".
※“Self-judgment method”
If the degree of damage is minor and it does not lead to semi-half-destruction (partially damaged), the applicant himself will judge that "it will not result in semi-destruction (partially damaged)" You can issue an affliction certificate more quickly than usual. If you wish, please bring a photo showing the damage situation and tell us at the counter.
