Japan utilities checklist: kuryente, gas, tubig at internet paglipat

Last verified: 2026-05-13

Kapag lilipat ka sa apartment sa Japan, hindi sapat ang susi at furniture. Minsan gumagana ang kuryente kapag inangat ang breaker, pero ang gas ay kadalasang kailangan ng appointment, ang tubig ay sa local water bureau, at ang internet ay depende sa linya ng building.

Mabilis na order: Ang ligtas na order ay kuryente, gas opening appointment, tubig, tapos internet. Huwag ibigay agad ang customer number, meter number o supply point ID sa biglang kumatok na salesperson.

Ihanda ito

• Address, room number and move-in date
• Contract holder name, phone number and email
• Electricity customer number, supply point ID or meter number
• Candidate times for the gas opening visit
• Water customer number if available, or the new address
• Building-compatible internet type: fiber, home router or pocket Wi-Fi

1. Kuryente: mag-apply bago lumipat, saka ikumpara ang plans

The Agency for Natural Resources and Energy says electricity switching usually requires details such as the customer number and supply point ID. Its guide gives standard examples of about 2 weeks when smart-meter replacement is needed and about 4 days when it is not. Your real start date still depends on the provider and building, so apply as soon as your move-in date is fixed.
