Faxing in Japan
Japan is the fax’s spiritual home: combined phone-fax machines became standard office equipment and a common household appliance, and Japanese businesses never really stopped faxing orders, invoices and applications.
During Japan’s 2020 COVID-19 relief rollout, several government ministries accepted applications by fax but not by email — a gap that helped launch the country’s Digital Agency.
Japan’s country code is +81; the leading zero drops in international format — a Tokyo fax 03 1234 5678 becomes +81 3 1234 5678.
