How it works
- This tool converts between 14 area units: square millimeter (mm²), square centimeter (cm²), square meter (m²), square kilometer (km²), are (a), hectare (ha), tsubo, jo, square inch (in²), square foot (ft²), square mile (mi²), acre (ac), tan, and cho.
- The square meter (m²), the SI unit of area, is used as the base. Every input is first converted to square meters and then to the target unit, so any pair of units gives a consistent result.
- Japanese units are calculated as: 1 tsubo ≈ 3.305785 m², 1 jo = 1.62 m², 1 tan = 300 tsubo, and 1 cho = 3,000 tsubo. The acre uses the international acre (4046.8564224 m²).
- Just enter the area you want to convert and pick its unit. All conversions appear in the table, with the square meter value shown prominently as the headline figure.
- This is handy for comparing the tsubo, jo, tan, and cho units common in Japanese real estate and land records against metric and imperial units side by side.
- Decimals are rounded to a readable number of digits, and very large or very small values may switch to scientific notation. For contracts, registration, or other cases that demand exact figures, please double-check the source values.
