Mailing Service Request from Alumni Abroad

When you wish to have your certificate sent overseas via postal mail and cannot use Japanese stamps, you may purchase an International Reply Coupon (IRC) at post office and enclose it when applying. You should send the stamps or coupon more than equivalent to the necessary postal rate for the university to send you your certificate(s). Unused stamps will be returned, if any.

Please also attach a photocopy of your identification document (Student ID card, driver's license, passport, health insurance certificate card, etc) to the request form.
If you are currently enrolled in our university, it is acceptable to request certificates by post only when you cannot use the certificate-issuing machine due to special reasons including studying abroad.

Issuing Electronic Certificates (Update: February 1, 2024)

The electronic certificate issuance is being operated on a trial basis. The new system is not available to all departments/divisions as it is a provisional service and is subject to change in the future.The PDF document will be digitally signed and therefore contains special characteristics. A paper printout of this PDF document is not valid as an original certificate. Only those who are currently required to submit certificates in electronic format may apply for the issuance of electronic certificates. Please enquire at the PEAK/GPEAK Section for details.
