              Free Consultation Services at Rainbow Plaza

At Rainbow Plaza, located on the 8th floor of the IMS building in Tenjin, free legal consultation and personal counseling services are available for foreign residents of Fukuoka.

The legal consultations are available from 1 to 4 PM on the first and third Saturdays of every month. On each day, up to four people can sign up for consultation. Each session runs for approximately 45 minutes including time for interpretation, if necessary.

The service is available by appointment only, and a lawyer from the Fukuoka Bar Association will offer the consultation.

If you’ll need an interpreter, mention that when you make your reservation and Rainbow Plaza will make arrangements.

Personal counseling is also offered by a clinical psychologist, in English or Japanese, every Monday, Thursday and Saturday. If you would like to take part in the counseling, an advanced reservation is needed. The staff at Rainbow Plaza will arrange an appointment with the psychologist. Confidentiality is guaranteed, so please feel free to take advantage of these complementary services.

And, also at Rainbow Plaza, free consultation regarding healthcare is also available for foreigners in Fukuoka.

Do you know anybody who is worried about their health but they have no idea which hospital to go to, or someone who is worried about going to hospitals because they lack confidence in their Japanese language skills?

Free consultations are held every Wednesday from 5 to 7 PM at Rainbow Plaza. Volunteer Japanese medical doctors will try to answer your questions about health problems, medical services and the Japanese medical system. Consultation is available in English or Japanese.

Advanced reservations are not needed. Please feel free to share your concerns. Rainbow Plaza is waiting for you!
