All application procedures for Japanese Government (Monbukagakusho) Scholarships are conducted through Japanese embassies/consulates in participating countries or through institutions of higher education in Japan. There is no fee to apply.

Please be aware that there is currently a scam in which Japanese government scholarship applications have been solicited through third party websites requiring an application fee. Please note that organizations or individuals who charge application fees have no relation with the Japanese Government.

If you require information about Japanese Government (MEXT) Scholarships, please contact our Consulate directly or visit: http://www.studyjapan.go.jp/en/.
