Japan Coast Guard

The Japan Coast Guard was established in 1948 with the mission of ensuring maritime safety and security.

 

Since its establishment, the JCG has been engaged criminal investigations, maritime security operations,

search and rescue, marine environment preservation, disaster mitigation, oceanographic research, and maritime safety operations.

 

Today, as globalization progresses in the 21st century, we will inherit the spirit of "Humanity and Justice" that OKUBO Takeo,

the first commandant of the JCG advocated, and all the JCG staff will carry out operations to realize safe and peaceful seas where order is maintained based on the rule of law while cooperating with foreign coast guard agencies.
