Article 14Measures to Ensure Accurate Entries in the Basic Resident Register
第十四条（住民基本台帳の正確な記録を確保するための措置）
Where the mayor of the municipality discovers, through managing and executing the mayor's affairs, or through a notice or notification given under Article 10 or the preceding two Articles, or an investigation under Article 34, paragraph (1) or paragraph (2), that there is an omission or erroneous entry in the basic resident register, or that there is an error or omission in the entries of a certificate of residence, the mayor must take the measures necessary to ensure accurate entries in the basic resident register, including demanding that the person under obligation to give notification do so.
A person recorded in the basic resident register may, where that person finds that there is an error or omission in the entries of a certificate of residence relating to that person or a person belonging to the same household as that person, notify the mayor of the municipality that maintains the basic resident register in which that person is recorded to that effect.
