Registration of Public Money Receipt Account

1. Registration of Public Money Receipt Account

By registering your deposit account information and your Individual Number (My Number) with the government (Digital Agency) in advance, you will no longer need to fill out your bank account information on application forms or attach a copy of your bank passbook. This also means that government agencies will not have to verify your account information for applications related to benefit payments, such as emergency relief funds. In addition to emergency relief funds, this account can be used to receive a wide range of benefit payments, including pensions, child allowances, and income tax refunds.
The registered account is referred to as the Public Money Receipt Account. (Source: Digital Agency website, Japanese only)
