Many property listing and housing service websites in Japan are written mainly in Japanese.
This can make the inquiry form look difficult at first, especially for foreign users.
However, filling out the form is actually simple, and you do not need perfect Japanese to submit an inquiry.
Below is a step-by-step guide explaining what to write in each field and which language you can use.
Step-by-Step Process
Click the box highlighted with a red circle, or scroll down to the bottom of the page to reach the Inquiry Form.
If you are using Google Chrome, you can use the built-in translation feature to view the Inquiry Form fields in your selected language.
※ Since the page itself is image-based, only the Inquiry Form will be translated, not the rest of the page.
The inquiry form accepts input in the following multiple languages:
- English
- Korean
- Chinease
- Vietnamese, etc.
👉 Recommendation:
While multiple languages are supported, English is the safest and most reliable choice to ensures faster responses.
After Submitting the Form
Even if the website itself is in Japanese, the inquiry process is designed to be foreigner-friendly.
