What is a substitute inspection (inspection by a measurer instead of periodic inspection)?

What is a substitute inspection?

In place of the periodic inspection conducted by Yokohama City, the inspection conducted by a nationally qualified measurer is called a substitute inspection.
The periodic inspection conducted by Yokohama City staff or designated periodic inspection organization patrols and carries out (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays), and the date and time cannot be specified in principle. If you wish to specify the date and time, please consider a substitute inspection.

※For inquiries about application for substitute inspection and inspection costs, please contact each measurer directly.
