Japan Residential Proxies

Route traffic through real consumer connections in Japan. The coverage figures below are read from our supplier snapshot and refreshed daily, rather than being a number written into the page once and left there.

Pool figures are a snapshot of what the upstream network reports for this country, not a count of exits reserved for you or available at one moment. City-level depth in particular does not follow the country total: ask for a spot check on the city you need before sizing a job around it.

Targeting Japan

Targeting rides in the username, so switching market needs no dashboard change and no second credential. Append the country code to your username:

# Anywhere in Japan
curl -x http://USER-country-jp:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:8082 https://api.ipify.org

# Over SOCKS5, same credential
curl --socks5-hostname USER-country-jp:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:1082 https://api.ipify.org

# Hold one Japan exit across requests (pick any letters and digits)
curl -x http://USER-country-jp-session-482913:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:8082 \
  https://api.ipify.org

Requesting a city with no exits is refused rather than silently redirected, so you never receive data from the wrong place believing it came from Japan.

Cities with coverage in Japan

248 cities are targetable. A sample is shown below; the targeting builder in your dashboard offers the full list, so you never have to guess at the spelling of a city name. Pool depth varies a lot between cities, so if you need many distinct addresses in one place, test the city before you rely on it.

Why a Japan residential IP

Retailers, marketplaces, travel sites, search engines and streaming services across Japan routinely serve different pricing, inventory and results by country. A Japan residential IP returns what a local visitor actually sees, from a connection that reads as an ordinary household rather than a datacenter.

What teams run through Japan

Teams use Japan exits for pricing intelligence, ad verification, stock and availability checks, search-rank tracking, localization QA and brand protection: the work where the answer depends on being seen as a local visitor rather than a foreign one.

Japan: coverage and targeting notes

Coverage spans Japan's major cities and regions, refreshed daily from the supplier snapshot whose figures appear above. Country targeting is the right default; narrow to a city or region only when the thing you are measuring genuinely varies within Japan.
