Membership
The activities of the International House of Japan (I-House) are supported by the members—the many broadminded and engaged individuals/corporates in society that recognize the importance of I-House’s mission and appreciate the tangible and intangible benefits that membership can confer. Besides the usage of the House facilities with a member rate, our members are invited to attend members-only social gatherings and lectures by renowned speakers from Japan and abroad. I-House is also affiliated with a number of overseas private clubs, which are not open to the public and our members have the privilege of using them, with a Letter of Introduction issued by I-House. To become a member, an application needs to be seconded by two existing members and approved by the Membership Committee.
