JLPT N1 Kanji List
There are 1,187 kanji on the JLPT N1 — the advanced level: near-native reading and nuanced comprehension. The full list is below, ordered by how often each character appears in everyday Japanese, with meanings, readings, and stroke counts.
A note on "official": the JLPT stopped publishing lists in 2010, so every N1 kanji list — ours included — is reconstructed from past exams and established prep materials. This is the set you should be able to read to pass comfortably.

How to actually learn the N1 kanji
- Work top to bottom. The list is frequency-ordered, so the characters you learn first are the ones you will meet most often in real Japanese.
- Learn each kanji inside words, not alone. A character studied through the N1 vocabulary it appears in is far more durable than one memorised as an isolated meaning.
- Review daily with spaced repetition. Kanji is a retention problem — spaced repetition schedules each character right before you would forget it.
- Know the timeline. For how these hours add up level by level, see how long it takes to learn Japanese.
Every kanji on this list is drillable
A list shows you the mountain; it does not climb it. In Nihongo Master, every character above is part of an ordered path from N5 through N1 — taught inside real vocabulary, reviewed by spaced-repetition drills that decide what you study each day, with an AI teacher for when a reading refuses to stick.
There is a free tier and a 7-day trial, so you can start today without a credit card.
Frequently asked questions
How many kanji are on the JLPT N1?
This list contains 1,187 kanji for JLPT N1. Note that the JLPT has not published official lists since 2010, so every N1 list — ours included — is based on past exams and established prep materials. The set above is what you should be able to read to pass comfortably.
What order should I learn the N1 kanji in?
By frequency, inside real vocabulary. The list above is ordered by how often each character appears in everyday Japanese, so working top to bottom means every hour of study pays off in real reading as early as possible. Learn each kanji through the words it appears in rather than as an isolated character.
How should I memorise the N1 kanji?
Daily spaced repetition. Kanji study is a retention problem, and short daily reviews beat long occasional sessions by a wide margin. Every kanji on this list is drillable in Nihongo Master, which schedules the reviews for you.
