Seasonal Flu Shot – Japan
We offer seasonal influenza vaccinations (flu shots) benefit to employees via local healthcare insurance provider (where applicable) or company reimbursement. See how to access the benefit if you would like to take up this voluntary benefit.
For employees based in Japan:
FTFHIA offers flu-shots subsidy to the insured persons and their dependents up to JPY 3,000 per person.
You can enjoy this subsidized benefit from Sep until Feb (Please check in advance to ensure vaccines or age-specific vaccine types are available).
This is voluntary, and there are 2 ways to take this benefit –
1) At designated hospitals/clinics covered under Toshinkyo
You can make an appointment at one of the clinics in the attached list or from https://www.toshinkyo.or.jp/influenza.html. Please call the clinic/hospital directly to make an appointment, fill out the application form on the website and bring along your insurance card to take the flu shot. In case the flu shot costs more than JPY 3,000, please pay the balance at the hospital/clinic.
2) At a non-designated hospital/clinic
You can submit the “Influenza Vaccination Reimbursement form 補助申請書 (契約外申請書) excel” after the vaccination along with the original receipt to FTFHIA to get reimbursement of up to JPY 3,000 per person on or before the deadline.
