Why pick Tokyo
The right region
for Japan-facing workloads.
Tokyo is the latency-sensitive anchor for everything in East Asia.
Tokyo. Right where you need it.
Tokyo data center on the same backbone as every other Cloudzy region. Sub-5 ms RTT to Japanese ISPs, exchanges, and game-server peers. Use it as a latency-sensitive Asia anchor.
Same hardware everywhere
AMD EPYC + DDR5 + pure NVMe + 40 Gbps. Tokyo is not a second-class region — it gets the same hardware refresh cadence as Utah, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt.
IPv6 native + dedicated IPv4
Many Japanese residential ISPs are IPv6-first. Every Japan VPS gets both a dedicated IPv4 and a routable IPv6 block — no carrier-grade NAT, no shared IP pools.
24/7 human support
Real engineers on chat in minutes (English). Median first-response under 5 minutes during business hours. Time zones don't matter — Tokyo, Tehran, or Toronto, you get the same response speed.
Latency from Tokyo
Asia, mapped
in milliseconds.
Indicative round-trip times from the Tokyo region to other major APAC cities. Real numbers depend on your peer's ISP — we don't claim guaranteed latency to any specific exchange or partner network.

Use cases
Workloads that
care about Tokyo latency.
Game servers for JP players
Minecraft Japan communities, FFXIV/MMO private shards, Apex Legends matchmaking, Japanese-language Discord bots. Tokyo region keeps ping under 30 ms for nearly all Japanese broadband.
APAC-facing SaaS
If your customers are in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, or Taiwan, Tokyo cuts your TTFB by ~150-200 ms versus US-West and ~250+ ms versus EU. Useful when conversion correlates with page-load speed.
Japanese e-commerce backend
Shopify Japan, Stripe Japan, BASE, Rakuten APIs all benefit from Tokyo-side egress. Reduces webhook round-trip time and improves payment processing perceived speed.
VPN endpoint in Japan
Your own WireGuard or OpenVPN node with a Tokyo dedicated IPv4 — useful for accessing JP-region streaming, JP-only services, or routing your traffic through Japan for testing geo-locked sites.
Streaming + IPTV bridge
Anime, JP IPTV streaming services, Niconico content distribution. Tokyo egress is well-peered with Japanese consumer ISPs (NTT, KDDI, SoftBank), which matters for video CDN-style workloads.

FAQ — Japan VPS
Common questions, straight answers.
Where exactly is the Japan region located?
Tokyo (slug: ap-tyo-1). One of Cloudzy's 12 worldwide regions and one of two in Asia (the other is Singapore, ap-sgp-1). Tokyo is the most popular APAC region for traders, gamers, and APAC-facing SaaS.
Why pick Tokyo over Singapore for Asia?
Tokyo is closer to most Japanese ISPs and exchanges — round-trip latency to Tokyo brokers (BitFlyer, GMO, IB Japan) is typically under 5 ms from the region. Singapore is better for Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia). For Japan specifically, China (Hong Kong/Shanghai), and Korea, Tokyo wins on raw RTT.
Is the network IPv6-ready?
Yes. Every Japan VPS gets a dedicated IPv4 + IPv6 — important in Japan where many residential ISPs are IPv6-first. Outbound IPv6 connectivity is native, no NAT64 weirdness.
What's the latency like to other APAC cities?
From Tokyo: Seoul ~30 ms, Hong Kong ~50 ms, Shanghai ~45 ms, Taipei ~50 ms, Singapore ~70 ms, Sydney ~110 ms, Mumbai ~120 ms. Internal Cloudzy traffic to other regions is over our backbone, not the public internet. Specific latency depends on your peer's ISP.
Can I run Japanese forex / crypto trading bots?
Yes. The High Frequency CPU plans (4.2 GHz+ Ryzen) in Tokyo are popular for retail forex and crypto trading bots — minimal latency to local broker order entry, dedicated cores for tight loop performance. We don't claim guaranteed latency to specific exchanges; that depends on your broker's network.
What about Japanese game servers?
Tokyo is the right region for hosting JP-region game servers (FFXIV community shards, Minecraft Japan communities, Apex Legends private servers, etc.). Lower latency to Japanese players than US-West, fewer regulatory concerns than mainland China hosting.
Is there support in Japanese?
Our primary support language is English, with 24/7 coverage. We don't currently staff Japanese-language support. Most Japanese developers and businesses we work with are comfortable with English documentation and English chat support.
Are payments accepted in JPY?
Pricing is in USD; we accept all major international payment methods (Visa, Mastercard, AmEx, PayPal, crypto). Your bank converts the USD charge to JPY on the statement. We don't currently bill directly in JPY, but for annual contracts over $1,000 we can arrange wire transfer in any currency.
Money-back guarantee in Japan region?
Same as everywhere: 14 days, no questions asked. Refund within one billing cycle. Plenty of time to deploy, test latency from your office or your customer base, and decide if Tokyo works for your workload.
What operating systems are available?
Same menu as every region: Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky, Fedora, Arch, CentOS, FreeBSD, openSUSE, and Windows Server (2016 / 2019 / 2022 / 2025). One-click images, or upload a custom ISO.
