gBizID: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how gBizID provides single sign-on access to government portals for business owners in Japan.
gBizID is a digital identity system designed to simplify how businesses interact with the government by providing single sign-on access to various government business portals.
Who it's for
This scheme is available to all business owners in Japan. It is designed to serve the entire business community, regardless of the size or type of business you operate.
What you get
The main benefit of gBizID is single sign-on access. This means you can use one set of credentials to log into all the different government business portals you need to use. Instead of managing separate login details for every different government service, this system provides a unified way to access these digital tools.
What it costs you
To use this service, you must undergo an identity verification process. This process requires you to provide a seal registration certificate to prove your identity to the issuing agency.
The catch to know
If you require the "Prime" version of the ID, please be aware that this is not an instant digital delivery. You will need to wait about a week for your credentials to arrive at your location via mail.
How to apply
- Visit the official gBizID portal.
- Prepare your identity verification documents, specifically your seal registration certificate.
- Complete the registration steps on the portal.
- If you applied for the "Prime" version, wait approximately one week for your credentials to arrive by mail.
