Getting to 浜田警察署和田駐在所
Use the recorded coordinates and address for 浜田警察署和田駐在所 to plan your journey. Before setting off, confirm the destination address against the station's official entry on the Japan police authority's website — a directory listing does not guarantee the building is currently open to the public or that the address has not changed.
Open directions in Google MapsIf you are travelling by public transport, check the local transport authority's journey planner for the most up-to-date routes and service disruptions. For parking, note that many police stations in city centres have restricted parking nearby — allow extra time and check local parking regulations before driving.
Accessible entrances, disabled parking, and step-free access arrangements have not been verified for this listing. Contact the station directly to confirm accessibility arrangements before your visit.
Visiting 浜田警察署和田駐在所
Opening hours for 浜田警察署和田駐在所 are not confirmed in this directory record. Police station public reception hours vary widely — from dedicated appointment slots to 24-hour desks. Some stations handle walk-in enquiries throughout the day; others require an appointment for specific services such as submitting a statement or collecting documentation.
No station phone number is recorded in this listing. Check the Japan police authority's official website for current contact details and hours before travelling to Shimane.
It is worth noting that emergency response and custody functions operate independently of public reception hours — a station may have locked public doors while still handling emergency calls and detainees. If you have a non-urgent matter, a phone call or online report will often be faster than an in-person visit.
Hours listed on third-party mapping services (including Google Maps) are community-contributed and may not reflect official information. Always confirm with the station or its parent authority directly.

Before you visit
A little preparation before visiting a police station will make the process faster and more straightforward. The following checklist covers what to bring and what to have ready for most common enquiries.
- Confirm opening hours: Call ahead or check the official website — walk-in hours for administrative services may be shorter than emergency hours.
- Bring valid identification: A passport, national ID card, or driving licence. If your ID has been stolen, bring any secondary proof of identity you have.
- Note what you need: Write down the key facts — date, time, location, what happened — before you arrive so you can give a clear account.
- Prepare your evidence: Photographs, screenshots, receipts, serial numbers, or any other relevant documents. Keep digital copies backed up separately.
- Know your reference number: If this is a follow-up visit, bring any existing crime reference or incident number you have been given.
- Confirm accessibility: If you need step-free access, hearing loops, or other support, contact the station in advance to confirm arrangements.
- Allow extra time: Waiting times vary and can be unpredictable during busy periods. For non-urgent matters, consider visiting mid-week during off-peak hours.
- Know your rights: You have the right to be treated with respect and to receive a crime reference number if a report is accepted. Ask if you are unsure about the process.
Emergency & non-emergency police assistance
If you are in immediate danger — a crime is happening, someone is injured, or you are being threatened — call the official emergency number for your current location immediately. Do not use this directory or search for a station in an active emergency.
In an emergency, call:
110 (Japan emergency number)
For non-emergency situations — a past theft, lost property, a neighbour dispute, or a general enquiry — contact the station by phone first. Many matters can be resolved without an in-person visit, and phoning ahead ensures you are directed to the right unit and prepared for what to bring.
Emergency steps if you cannot reach help immediately:
- Move to a safer place if you can do so without increasing the danger.
- Call the emergency number and give your location clearly — a street address, nearby landmark, or GPS coordinates from your phone.
- Stay on the line and follow the dispatcher's instructions exactly.
- If you cannot speak, many emergency lines accept silent calls or SMS — check this for your country in advance.
- If the call fails, try again — emergency calls get priority routing on all mobile networks.
These are general steps for guidance only and do not replace professional emergency services. Always follow official dispatcher instructions.
Travelers & international visitors
If you are a visitor to Shimane and need police assistance, having a few key pieces of information ready will make the process significantly easier. Keep your accommodation address and contact number accessible at all times — this is the first thing police will ask in many situations.
Language support is not confirmed at this station. In Japan, tourist police units or dedicated visitor assistance desks operate in some major cities and tourist areas. Ask at the main desk whether an English-speaking officer or interpreter is available. Your hotel or accommodation can often provide translation assistance or accompany you to the station.
If your passport is lost or stolen:
- Report the theft or loss to the nearest police station and obtain a crime reference number.
- Contact your country's embassy or consulate immediately — they require the police report to begin the emergency document process.
- Check with your travel insurer — most require a police report filed within 24 hours for passport-related claims.
- Keep a digital copy of your passport in secure cloud storage (e.g. email to yourself) before you travel.
If you are a victim of crime while travelling, your country's embassy can provide a list of local lawyers, notify your next of kin, and monitor that you are treated fairly under local law. They cannot, however, secure your release from custody or override local legal proceedings.
Preparing information for a police report
A well-prepared account helps officers file an accurate report and speeds up any subsequent investigation. Before visiting or calling, gather as much of the following information as you can.
What happened
- Exact date, time, and location of the incident
- A clear factual account of events in chronological order
- Description of anyone involved — appearance, clothing, vehicle, direction of travel
- Names and contact details of any witnesses
Property and evidence
- List of stolen or damaged items with descriptions
- Serial numbers, IMEI codes, or unique identifiers
- Photographs of damage, the scene, or missing items
- Screenshots, receipts, or bank statements if relevant
Once your report is filed, ask for a crime reference number — you will need this for insurance claims, replacement document applications, and follow-up enquiries. If you remember additional information after filing, contact the station using your reference number as soon as possible.

Japan: How the Police System Works
Japan's police system is centrally coordinated by the National Police Agency (NPA) but operated at the prefectural level by 47 prefectural police forces. Each prefecture has a headquarters and multiple police stations (keisatsusho). Below these are smaller community police boxes — kōban (交番) in urban areas and chūzaisho in rural areas — where officers provide highly visible, neighbourhood-level policing and resident assistance.
Emergency number: 110
In Japan, dial 110 for police and 119 for fire and ambulance. Operators have limited English in many areas. The Japan Tourism Agency's Japan Visitor Hotline (+81-50-3816-2787) is available 24 hours in English, Chinese, and Korean for tourists.
Reporting crimes in Japan
Crimes can be reported at any police station (keisatsusho) or police box (kōban). Japan's community policing culture means kōban officers are expected to assist visitors with directions, local information, and non-crime matters as well as police reporting.
For visitors and international travelers
Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the world. If you need any assistance — lost, confused, or needing to report an incident — approaching the nearest kōban is reliable and safe. Officers will make every effort to help even with limited shared language.
