My Number Card Dissemination & Utilization

Last updated 2026-05-03 · Source: digital.go.jp

How to read this dashboard

This dashboard separates My Number Card possession from actual service use. Card holdings show identity infrastructure coverage; convenience-store certificate issuance shows one concrete way residents use the card instead of visiting a counter.

Who is counted
People holding My Number Cards and administrative certificates issued through convenience-store kiosks.
What the number means
Card holdings are cumulative cards held nationally. Convenience-store issuance share is convenience-store certificate issuance divided by annual resident certificate issuance.
How to read it
Higher card holdings show potential reach, but they do not prove active digital service use. Higher convenience-store issuance means more certificate requests are bypassing municipal counters.
Why it matters
The policy goal is not just cards in wallets; it is reducing friction in everyday administrative services.
