80th Anniversary Hall Housing’s Response After Downgrading of COVID-19’s Categorization to Class 5

Following the abolishment of the “Tokyo Tech Response to COVID-19,” 80th Anniversary Hall Housing has revised its response to COVID-19 as follows:

Changes in procedures/actions:

Move-in procedures

1) Confirmation deadline for planned move-in date

In principle, applicants need to confirm the planned move-in date at least 10 business days in advance. With the COVID-19 situation, which could cause sudden changes to plans, confirmation might have been delayed for up to 3 business days prior to the planned move-in date. The confirmation deadline is now back to normal, which is at least 10 business days in advance and will not be delayed.
For the latest information, please see “Application and Move-in Procedures“.

2) Cancellation fees

In principle, applicants need to pay the cancellation fees shown in “Cancellation and Re-reservation“. With the COVID-19 situation, which could cause sudden changes to plans, cancellation fees/first invoice of the residence were suspended when the cancellation or postponement occurred due to COVID-19 related reasons. The cancellation fee policy is now back to normal, and will not be suspended.
For the latest information, please see “Cancellation and Re-reservation“.

3) Re-reservation after cancellation

In principle, applicants need to follow the rules for cancellation after the issuance of the Notification of Permission for Residence as shown in “Cancellation and Re-reservation“. With the COVID-19 situation, which could cause sudden changes to plans, the rules were not applied when the cancellation or postponement was due to COVID-19 related reasons. The rule is now back to normal, and will be applied.
For the latest information, please see “Cancellation and Re-reservation“.

*The above changes will apply from the move-in date of July 1, 2023.
