October 17, 2025Accommodation in Japan: options and special discounts with KOKO JAPAN

Finding accommodation in Japan can be a major challenge for international students. Unlike other countries, renting an apartment on your own in Japan isn’t easy: most properties require a Japanese guarantor, a long contract, and high down payments.
That’s why at KOKO JAPAN, we collaborate with various companies and residences to offer more affordable, secure options with exclusive discounts for our students. If you mention “KOKO JAPAN” or use our direct links when contacting companies, you can receive special discounts on the down payment or the first month’s rent.
