General Information Handbook

The General Information Handbook (GIH) is a comprehensive resource about the JET Programme for JET Programme participants and contracting organisations. This bilingual publication is sent to new JET Programme participants in their home countries before they depart for Japan.

All JET Programme participants are expected to read the GIH thoroughly, bring it with them to Japan, and keep it as a reference.

In addition to general information about understanding your terms and conditions, Status of Residence/Period of Stay, taxes, and insurance, the GIH also contains information that can assist you with your everyday life in Japan.
