Fukuoka High Public Prosecutors Office

The Fukuoka High Public Prosecutors Office is a judicial institution located in a contemporary building within the Ropponmatsu district. It processes appeals and serious criminal cases across eight regional jurisdictions in the Kyushu area and Okinawa.

The office relocated to its current Ropponmatsu location in 2019, moving away from its former position in the Maizuru district. This relocation reflected broader efforts to modernize regional judicial administration.

The institution maintains strict protocols and formal procedures that reflect Japanese legal traditions, including specific hierarchical structures and ceremonial practices.

The office is centrally located in the Ropponmatsu district with good public transit access. Visitors are advised to arrange an appointment in advance, as this is an official judicial institution with restricted entry.

The office oversees a population of 9.8 million people across 24,406 square kilometers, making it one of the largest jurisdictional areas among Japanese high prosecutor offices.
