Notifications Regarding Moving （転入・転居・転出）
If your place of residence has changed, you need to complete certain formalities. If you have asked a proxy to complete these formalities on your behalf, you will need a separate letter granting that proxy power of attorney.
From February 6th, 2023, if you have a My Number Card, you can make use of the One-Stop Moving Service to set a planned date for moving into the city or changing address within your city, as well as to submit a Notice of Moving Out.
It is still necessary to bring your Notice of Moving In and Notice of Change of Address to the counter of the City Office, but the formalities have become smoother than previously.
If you are moving out of Higashihiroshima City to another municipality within Japan, as a rule there is no need for you to visit the City Office in Higashihiroshima City. If you are moving outside Japan, you will need to visit the City Office.
