Tour guide-interpreter search system
In Japan, high-quality guide-interpreters are available for hire, as the Guide-Interpreter Business Law (Law No. 210 of 1949) stipulates that only persons who have passed the nation's guide-interpreter examination may work as guide-interpreters for a fee. Such persons should possess accurate knowledge of national matters and have sufficient ability to communicate in a foreign language.
This website provides foreign visitors coming to Japan the ability to search for qualified guide-interpreters. The user can find a guide-interpreter and search by region, knowledge area, language, and other search criteria, and directly contact the guide-interpreter to make a booking for their service.
