Tokyo's Shibuya Ward is introducing 2,000 yen fines for littering starting June 1. New rules also require more trash cans at convenience stores and cafes in high-traffic areas.

Shibuya and Harajuku are implementing new anti-littering measures to combat increased trash, especially after the rise in tourism. Visitors caught littering anywhere in Shibuya Ward will face a 2,000 yen fine, enforced 24/7.

Convenience stores and cafes in areas around Shibuya Station must now provide public trash cans. Businesses failing to comply will be fined 50,000 yen.

These changes aim to keep Shibuya cleaner for everyone. Be mindful of proper waste disposal to avoid fines and contribute to a more pleasant experience for all travelers.
