About this Gig
Planning to purchase or develop land in Japan? Before you invest, it's critical to confirm what can legally be built on it.
As a licensed architect (Japan) with experience in logistics, commercial, and public facility design, I provide a clear, practical check of Japanese building regulations for a specific parcel of land, including:
Zoning classification (用途地域) and permitted building uses
Building coverage ratio (建蔽率) and floor area ratio (容積率)
Height restrictions and sunlight regulations (日影規制)
Road access requirements (接道義務)
Fire prevention area restrictions
Other site-specific restrictions affecting buildability
I translate complex Japanese regulations into a report you can actually use for investment or design decisions.
BASIC Zoning Snapshot ($100)
Zoning classification, building coverage ratio, floor area ratio, and height limits for one parcel. Delivered as a 1or2 page summary.

FAQ
What information do you need to start the check?
The land's address or lot number (地番) at minimum. Zoning maps or registry documents help, but I can look these up myself if you don't have them.
How accurate is this compared to an official survey?
This review is based on published zoning and building regulation data and is intended for early-stage feasibility and investment decisions. It is not a substitute for a formal land survey or official pre-application consultation (事前協議) with the local government.
Can you guarantee what I can build on this land?
No. I provide a regulatory assessment based on current public information, but final confirmation always requires direct consultation with the local building authority before design or construction.
