KanjiPadJLPT N3 kanji list
N3 is the step where kanji stop being a list and start being reading. These 739 characters carry newspaper headlines, station signs and everyday abstract vocabulary — and most of them have more than one reading. They are ordered by stroke count; tap any of them for animated stroke order, readings and example words.
How many kanji are in JLPT N3?
739 — and all 739 are listed on this page, free, with no sign-up.
The JLPT stopped publishing official kanji lists in 2010. The characters teachers and textbooks usually place in the N3–N2 range are shown here as one set of 739 kanji: splitting them would mean inventing a boundary that no longer exists.
