- Being a pregnant foreign worker in Japan can make anyone anxious. Among a gazillion other things, the allowed duration of maternity leave and the state of your finances during that said downtime can be a cause of much confusion - it sure was for me!
So today, I would like to talk about the points listed below. More details on my blog: thatjapanlife....
1. When maternity leave can be taken
2. What is Japan’s 出産手当金 (“shussan teatekin”) or maternity allowance
3. Who are qualified for the maternity allowance
4. How much maternity allowance can be received
5. Procedures for securing your maternity allowance
6. When you can expect to receive your maternity pay

Very very helpful! Everything was clearly explained. Thank you so much
Thank you very much 💕💕
Very helpful and informative! Thank you for posting this video. I hope you can post about Child Care Leave on your next video. God bless!
shalom abit Very happy you found it useful. Yes, I am planning on making a video about Child Care Leave as soon as I experience it first hand and get a better understanding of it. This week, I am also coming up with a video about my delivery in a Japanese hospital, maybe you’ll find that informative as well. 💕
@@ThatJapanLife May I ask at which hospital did you give birth? I live near Tokyo and I am giving birth in June, now at my 31st week. I also watched your video of 'What's in my hospital bag', pretty easy to follow. I'm looking forward to seeing your delivery video. Thank you. :)
shalom abit oh, you’re almost there! God bless! I gave birth at Seo Clinic in Ikegami because it was the nearest that had epidural available.
Soooo helpful! Thanks a lot! ^^
I’m so happy you found it helpful 🙏
@@ThatJapanLife sis I wanna ask also if it is possible to work for some hours or days while on maternity leave? Do you have any idea sis? Thank you so much :)
Hi this video is very very helpful and informative. Thank you so much! I’d just like to ask, what if I gave birth earlier than the due date? What is the calculation would be? To be exact my supposed due date was June 13 but I gave birth 5 weeks early, May 11. Hope you can answer this! Thank you
Hello po.
Kung ang visa po ay intra company transferee po, pwede po ba maka avail ng maternity leave? Or balik po ng Pinas? Sorry not so related po sa video.
what if you have a scheduled caesarian operation? youteibi will be the date of expected operation?
charooot ang ka blooming! :D blooming ka diring dapita weird.
HAHA.. ana lang yet..
Thanks for this thorough explanation. Btw, did you receive the full 3 month-salary-equivalent at once? How about the months after that? I heard you will only receive around 60% for the remaining 9 months. Did you receive the 60% monthly?
thank you very much for sharing ❤ if you don’t mind i just want to know where to ask about the shussan teatekin except to my company… thank you in advance 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks 🇳🇵🥰🇯🇵
Hello nakatanggap po ako ng papel galing sa kaisha ko about shussan teatekin, san ko po sya iaapply? Or sonomama sya dadating sa bank account ko?
I work part time work still 3 moth.
Now im 7 month pregnancy .can i get metanity allowance ???
Hello, ask ko lang po during maternity leave did you still paid for shakai hoken?? Thanks in advance I'm 20 weeks pregnant now and it's my 1st time. It'll be a big help if you can answer my question.😊
After 1year pwede pa ba irenew or i-extend yung child care leave allowance? If pwede mga ilang months pede ma idagdag?
good day miss can i avail the one year maternity pay? even if i only worked for 10-11 months in the company? thank you
As far as I can remember, the minimum is 6 months so you should be able to. But please do consult with your HR since I'm not an expert. Thanks.
@@ThatJapanLife the other company is very strict they want one year to work to avail the maternity
@@ThatJapanLife thank you
Thank you for the information. I would like to ask if after your maternity leave. Do you received letter from your local government that you need to pay tax, indicating the total amount. Given the fact that you are not receiving any pay during your maternity leave still you need to pay? Please enlighten me regarding this matter. Hope to hear from you. Thank you in advance
Hi. Yes. I did need to pay an 'inhabitant tax', the amount of which, as I understand, depends on your salary. In my case, however, my company volunteered to handle the processing of that. What I did was just deposit the necessary amount monthly to my company's account and they handled the rest.
@@ThatJapanLife Thank you for your reply. I, just want to share also that last January I gave birth overseas and return to Japan Last March 15 and gave the necessary documents to my HR but until now I did not hear anything about my maternity benefits. Does it took long to get the benefits?
@@ThatJapanLifeDid you received anything. Like for example a letter that your maternity benefits are in your account?
Hi. It didn't take that long in my case. And I didn't receive any prior notice from anyone that the amount had been deposited. I just happen to have Online Banking and the app sends notifications when transfers have been made to my account. You should probably go check your bank account - "baka may grasya na"😉😂
After po b mkreceive ng 98days maternity leave my marereceive p po ba?
kelangan ba ang kaisha ang mag process ng maternity leave?
Hello. As far as I know, yes. Kasi kailangan i-ko-contact ng company ang Hello Work.
@@ThatJapanLife hi po shussan teate yun na Po tntwag nla na maternity leave?
@@einalem8913 hi. Yes po.
@@ThatJapanLife about Po sa childcare leave from hello work ilang months c baby bago makatanggap nun?
I read all the comments. Magkaiba po ba yung nareceived mo in full & yung 6 times mo nareceived?
Hi. In my case, pinapili po ako ng accountant namin if I wanted to receive it once in bulk or if I wanted to receive it every 2 months and I chose the latter.
Standeard monthly remuneration mean basic salary??
Yes, your monthly salary :)
@@ThatJapanLife after all deduct amount??
@@ThatJapanLife because my basic salary200000 after all deduct I received 15-16 -万

Hello, sa pagkakaintindi ko, yes. Pwede.

Hello can i ask how many time you reciev the maternity leave allowance?
Hello, I think about 6 times.
@@ThatJapanLife thank you for the answer
@@ThatJapanLife same price? In the first allowance?
Hello po ilang beses lng po ba maternity allowance po
Hello. Within a year, I received it 6 times - varying amounts.
Good day i need you help please i am 4 months pregnant now and currently working as a regular worker I’m confused about the papers the company’s gave to me if that all papers must passed before or after giving birth? May i know your fb messenger please?
This video is really helpful but I have a question.. can I still apply for this even I will quit in my current company 3days before my maternity leave ends 😅 coz I’m on my maternity leave right now and it will end on the 22nd, but I got a new job and will start on the 19th… can I still apply for maternity allowance?
I think it’s okay as long as you have served more than 6 mos in the current company.

Hello. I’m 4-month pregnant now and I’m working in a private company. Unfortunately I am not under shakai hoken instead I’m paying a kokumin hoken. Does it mean I can’t avail the maternity leave allowance? Thank you.
Hi. I’m not an expert but as far as I know, yes, that unfortunately means you can’t avail of the maternity leave allowance. I hope you can consult with your human resources officer and clear things up.
