Eviction Process in Japan (Mewatashi): What to Do if the Occupant Won't Move? 🚀

The biggest fear for Keibai investors is: "I've paid in full, but the previous owner won't leave." 💡

Don't worry. Japanese law provides a very strict and powerful process to protect your rights as the new owner.

Before jumping to legal action, try a sincere conversation.

Tip: Offering a small "relocation fee" (usually 100,000 to 200,000 JPY) can often get you the keys much faster than going to court.
Benefit: Saves time and maintains peace with the neighbors.

If negotiation fails, apply to the court for an Eviction Order.

Deadline: You must apply within 6 months of making the final payment.
Result: The court issues a formal order for the occupant to vacate. This is your primary legal weapon.

This is the final "heavy weapon." A court execution team will intervene:

Notice: The bailiff visits the site, post a notice, and sets a final deadline.
Execution: If the occupant remains past the deadline, a professional team will move all belongings to storage and change the locks for you.
