About Gaido Japan
Helping foreigners build a life in Japan since day one.
Our Mission
Gaido Japan was created with a clear purpose: to be the most reliable, comprehensive platform helping foreigners navigate every aspect of life in Japan. From finding a job and a home to enrolling in a language school, discovering local events, and exploring unforgettable tours — we bring it all together in one place, in both English and Japanese.
Why Gaido Japan?
Moving to a new country is daunting. We know because we've been there. Japan has incredible opportunities, but the language barrier, cultural differences, and fragmented resources make it hard to get started. Gaido Japan bridges that gap with curated, trustworthy information and tools designed specifically for the international community in Japan.
Our Values
Accessibility
All content is available in English and Japanese, making information accessible to everyone regardless of language ability.
Reliability
We verify every job listing, property, school, and tour so you can trust what you find on our platform.
Community
We're building more than a website — we're building a community of people who support each other in making Japan their home.
The Team
Gaido Japan is built by a small team of developers, designers, and Japan enthusiasts based in Tokyo. We combine local expertise with a global perspective to create the best possible experience for our users.
