Combine services. Save JPY 3,000.

Airport pickup, housing, job-search support, and travel agency registration are the four eligible service types. Housing counts as one service. Taxi fares, rent, travel costs, school referrals, chat extensions and return-taxi add-ons do not qualify toward the two-service minimum.

Airport + housing examples

Job-search support is JPY 35,000 per person; travel agency registration support is JPY 20,000 per person. Choose two or more of our four core services and save JPY 3,000 once on the combined support total. The airport + housing prices above already include this discount. Adding a third or fourth service does not create another discount. School referrals do not add a HarukaBase fee. Housing options generally have a one-month minimum charge.

COST CALCULATOR · TAXI + ACCOMMODATION + SCHOOL

Your Japan stay, in numbers.

Start with examples, then adjust the amounts to match your quote. All amounts are in Japanese yen. Provider costs and HarukaBase support fees are shown separately and added to your planning total.

01 · Airport taxi

Route presets use our existing June 2026 planning table, not a live taxi quote. Confirm current rates and vehicle capacity. If your entered quote already includes an extra, leave that extra unchecked. Tolls, parking, waiting, additional vehicles, and unlisted routes need a separate quote.

02 · Accommodation

Explore 12 accommodation examples in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. Published-price estimates checked on 6 October 2026; these are not live offers or confirmed availability.

Choose a property to see its monthly amount, initial costs and calculation conditions.

The example fills this amount. You can replace it with an itemized quote for your entire stay. Changing the property or stay length recalculates it.

Totals = monthly amount × stay length + initial housing costs once. Deposits are included where stated; possible refunds are not deducted. HarukaBase support is selected separately below. Third-party booking/service fees, optional extras and costs not listed in an example are excluded. Do not add the same initial costs twice.
