This page gives information of type fertility about the country Japan.

Data sources

Some data on this page comes from the Human Fertility Database (website www.humanfertility.org) (data downloaded December 2, 2013, last updated by HFD August 8, 2012). The data collected by the Human Fertility Database is based on government data collection by the government of Japan. You can download the data yourself here. Details about the modalities of data collection are available here. Where available, we use HFD data because of its higher reliability.

Qualitative history of fertility-relevant events and trends

Key events

See Wikipedia:Abortion in Japan for the abortion timeline, and this paper for the pro-natalist policy timeline.

Year Event Postulated effects seen in fertility statistics
1869 abortion was banned nationwide, but punishment was rare except in cases of adultery or death to the mother
1880 ban on abortion was included in the penal code
1907 women could be incarcerated for up to a year for having an abortion; practitioners could be jailed for up to seven.
1923 doctors were granted legal permission to perform emergency abortions to save the mother's life; abortions performed under different, less life-threatening circumstances were still prosecuted.
1940 National Eugenic Law outlined a set of procedures doctors needed to follow in order to get an abortion. Some commentators claim this was causally responsible for a huge decline in the number of abortions 1941-1944.
1948 passage of Eugenic Protection Law legalizing abortion and facilitating the provision of family planning services This may have contributed to the rapid decline in birth rates and fertility in the 1949-1955 period.
1966 inauspicious year for births. sudden dip in fertility rates.
1972 The Japanese government, foreseeing that fertility would soon drop to below the replacement fertility level, introduced a per-child subsidy.
1973 change in data collection modalities Jumps or discontinuities at this year are likely attributable to the change in data collection modality.
1991 Childcare Leave Act passed by Japanese government aimed at helping working mothers
1994 government passed a four-year Angel Plan 1995-99 (officially known as the "Basic Direction for Future Childbearing Support Measures") with the primary goal being to establish more day-care centers to make parenting easier (and thereby, more attractive)
1996 replacement of the Eugenic Protection Law by the Maternal Health Protection Law, making abortion illegal except in case the fetus had significant defects or in case of danger to the mother's health No discernible effect, but probably because the law itself didn't change reality on the ground.
1999 government passed a New Angel Plan building on the earlier Angel Plan, to build more day-care centers and after-school support.
1999 birth control pills were legalized, see here No discernible effect
2001 Employment Insurance Law was amended, specifying that 40% salary was to be paid to regular full-time employees on childcare leave
2002 "Plus One" plan announced by the government, encouraging fathers to take five-day paternity leave following childbirth
2003 Japanese government passed "Next Generation" law and "Law for Measures to Support the Development of the Next Generation." These required any business with more than 300 workers to create a "plan" for raising the fertility level of its workers
2004 government subsidies for infertility treatments begin
2006 abortion was officially made legal conditional to the mother's consent No discernible effect, but probably because the law itself didn't change reality on the ground.

Trends in period fertility

The fertility history of Japan can be subdivided into the following rough periods. Fertility history prior to 1947 relies on Gapminder, which uses the less reliable UN data, whereas fertility history 1947 onward uses the higher reliability HFD data. However, for the part 1947 onward, the Gapminder and HFD data paint a similar picture, and the only qualitative difference is that the Gapminder data fail to capture the dip in 1966.

Time period Trend in fertility Some numbers Details
1873-1901 huge increase TFR increased from 3.41 to 5.01
1901-1906 rapid decrease TFR decreased from 5.01 to 4.37
1907-1919 upward jump, followed by modest decrease TFR jumped up to 5.02 (from 4.37 the previous year), then decreased gradually to 4.77 The introduction of explicit penalties for women who have abortions in 1907 might explain the jump.
1920-1939 rapid decrease TFR decreased from 5.35 to 3.8 The sudden change between 1919 and 1920 may be attributable to the change in data source.
1939-1947 fluctuation TFR increased from 3.8 to 4.5, but with fluctuations The war years of 1944 and 1945 were particularly bad for TFR.
1947-1957 huge decrease CBR decreased from 34.65 to 17.38
TFR decreased from 4.566 to 2.058		 Possibly exacerbated by the legalization of abortion in 1948. Note that the starting point of 1947 is the earliest year for which reliable data can be found, and Japan was also involved in World War II till 1945. Therefore, the relevance of legal abortion in the decline of fertility is hard to test.
1957-1973 modest decrease followed by modest increase CBR increased from 17.38 to 19.35
TFR increased from 2.058 to 2.135, dipping to about 1.9 in between
1959 was the first year with below-replacement fertility, and 1973 was the last year with above-replacement fertility		 The year 1966, an inauspicious year for births, was in the middle of this period. Adjusting for the huge decline in births in these year and the subsequently slightly-above-normal value next year, we see a steady and modest increase in fertility over the period. Tightening of abortion laws is probably part of the explanation.
1973-present gradual decrease CBR decreased from 19.35 to 8.5
TFR decreased from 2.135 to 1.361		 The decline was not steady, with small upticks in a few years, including what may be a more long-term rebound 2005-2009 (further data would be necessary to verify that). But the overall direction of decline is pretty strong. For a discussion of reasons, see explanations for fertility trends in Japan since 1973.


Trends in completed fertility

Range of birth cohorts Trend in fertility Some numbers Details
1932-1944 stayed roughly steady, declining and then bouncing back CCF decreased from 2.06 to 2.035
CCF40 decreased from 2.047 to 2.027		 The fertility seems to have gone up a bit for the cohorts born during World War II, but the overall variation is too little. Mean CCF for the period is 2.036 and standard deviation is 0.023.
1945-1959 stayed roughly steady, but lower than the 1932-1944 level CCF increased from 1.851 to 1.87
CCF40 increased from 1.842 to 1.85		 Mean CCF was 1.95 and standard deviation 0.049.
Mean CCF40 was 1.94 and standard deviation 0.049.
1959-1969 rapid decline CCF data unavailable
CCF40 decreased from 1.85 to 1.444		 Slope for rate of decline using linear regression estimate is -0.04.


Key quantitative metrics

Unless otherwise specified, data is from the Human Fertility Database, last updated August 2012.

The "Year" column below gives the period year for period measures, and the birth cohort year for cohort measures. With the exception of the tempo-adjusted total fertility rate, all latest period measures are for 2009. Latest cohort measures are 1959 or 1969, the former for the completed measures and the latter for the under-40 measures.
