Worth knowing when moving in

  • If someone other than the person mentioned above is completing the procedure, a letter of proxy (委任状) completely filled out by the person themselves (the requester) is required. 上記以外の方が手続きをする場合は、本人(頼む方)がすべて記入した委任状が必要です。
  • There are no jurisdictional boundaries, so any 区民事務所 (Resident Office) handles the same services. 管轄区域はありませんので、どの区民事務所でも同様の業務を行います。
  • If you have moved to Katsushika City from another municipality or from abroad, please complete the moving-in (転入, tennyu) procedure at your local 区民事務所 (Resident Office) or the City Office (戸籍住民課 / Family Register and Resident Section). 他の区市町村や国外から葛飾区にお引越しされた方は、お近くの区民事務所か区役所(戸籍住民課)で転入の手続きをしてください。

Registering a marriage in Katsushika (葛飾区)

Straight from Katsushika (葛飾区)'s own pages. Names of desks and buildings are left in Japanese on purpose — you will need to show or say them at the counter.

  • 区役所戸籍住民課 — 〒124-8555 葛飾区立石5-13-1 葛飾区役所2階 217番窓口 — Tel 03-5654-8190
  • 夜間・休日窓口

Weekday reception:During the opening hours of the ward office (Monday to Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, every Wednesday until 7:30 PM, once a month on Sunday from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM). 区役所の開庁時間内(月から金曜日の午前8時30分から午後5時まで、毎週水曜日は午後7時30分まで、毎月1回日曜日午前9時から正午まで)です。

Outside those hours:Outside of office opening hours, notification forms are accepted at the 「夜間・休日受付窓口」 (Night and Holiday Reception Window). 開庁時間以外の時間は、「夜間・休日受付窓口」で届書をお預かりしています。

The after-hours window normally only takes custody of your paperwork — a 戸籍 clerk checks it on the next working day.

At the 夜間・休日窓口 (Night and Holiday Window), we only accept family register notifications (届書) for custody and cannot make an official acceptance decision. The received notifications will be reviewed in order on the next business day. If any deficiencies are found as a result of the review, the person in charge will contact you, so please write your contact telephone number in the margin of the notification form. If corrections by the submitter are required, you may also be asked to visit the 戸籍住民課 (Family Register and Resident Section) window at the ward office. If acceptance is approved, the date of acceptance will be the date the notification was submitted. 夜間・休日窓口では、戸籍の届書のお預かりのみ行い、受理決定はできません。 お預かりした届書は、翌営業日に順番に審査します。 審査の結果、不備があった場合は、担当から連絡しますので、届書余白へ連絡先電話番号をご記入ください。 届出人の訂正が必要な場合は、区役所戸籍住民課窓口へ来庁いただく場合もあります。 受理決定された場合の受理日は、届書を提出した日となります。

Worth knowing when registering a marriage

  • Please note that for family register notifications received during Wednesday extended evening hours, Sunday opening days, or other special time slots, if the notification requires verification with another municipality, we may only be able to temporarily hold the document as verification cannot be completed immediately. なお、水曜夜間延長窓口及び日曜開庁日などの時間帯に受付した戸籍の届書で、他区市町村に内容確認が必要な届書につきましては、確認ができないために届書のお預かりのみとさせていただく場合がございます。
  • Please note that, limited only to notifications of birth, death, and stillbirth, these can also be handled at 区民事務所 (Resident Offices). なお、出生・死亡・死産の届出に限り、区民事務所でも取り扱います。
  • If downloading the "婚姻届" (Marriage Notification) below, please print it in A3 size before use. 下記の「婚姻届」をダウンロードする場合はA3サイズに印刷して使用してください。
  • You can also submit by mail, but if there are any errors or omissions, you may be required to visit the 区役所戸籍住民課 (Ward Office Family Register and Resident Division) counter to make corrections. The date of notification will be the date it is received by this division. 郵送でもお届けいただけますが、不備があった場合は区役所戸籍住民課窓口へ来庁いただき訂正していただく場合もあります。届出日は、当課で収受した日となります。
  • In addition, for the 5 types of notifications—marriage notification, divorce notification, adoption notification, dissolution of adoptive relationship notification, and acknowledgment of paternity notification—identity verification will be conducted by requesting the person visiting the counter (including messengers) to present "identity verification documents" (My Number Card, driver's license, passport, etc.). また、婚姻届、離婚届、養子縁組届、養子離縁届、認知届の5種類の届出の際には、窓口に来られた方(使者を含む)の「本人確認書類」(マイナンバーカードや運転免許証、パスポート等)の提示による本人確認をさせていただきます。
