About this place

Kansai International Airport is built on an artificial island off Izumisano, Osaka Bay. It is the usual entry point for Kyoto, Nara and Wakayama road trips.

The only road onto the island is the Sky Gate Bridge, which is a toll crossing — keep an ETC card or cash ready in both directions. Because the island has a single approach, the mapcode gets you onto the bridge and the on-island signage does the rest.


Need a mapcode for somewhere else?

This site covers 30 places. Your hotel, the rental return lot, the restaurant you booked — those need mapcodes too, and they are not on this list. The app converts any Japanese address or place name, in English, Korean, Chinese or Japanese. Free.


How to enter this in your car navigation

  1. On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
  2. Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
  3. Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
  4. Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.

Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix — that is fine, it only refines the pin.

Frequently asked questions

What is the mapcode for Kansai International Airport?
The mapcode is 946 359 649*20, pointing at a spot in 大阪府. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 34.434332, 135.244197. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
What is a mapcode?
A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
