4. Notes

(1) The journal price increases 5-10% constantly every year. In addition, depending on the exchange rate movement, the price converted into yen may rise further. (Every year, subscriptions to international journals are ordered in October. For this reason, the exchange rate in October is used for bills.) Further, due to the tax system revision in FY 2015, subscriptions to e-journals published by foreign publishers have been taxed from 2016. Please note that if the print subscription includes the price of online access, you might be charged with consumption tax. Please give this due consideration before deciding to subscribe to a journal.

(2) Please be aware that subscriptions cannot be canceled or added after the purchase orders are sent to the subscription agency.

(3) If you plan to retire or leave Tokyo Tech during FY 2020, please make sure you submit the necessary applications during this application period to cancel any ongoing subscriptions.

(4) Please contact us immediately if your affiliation or other relevant personal information changes after submitting your applications.
