Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced on July 14, 2022, that a state funeral will be held for Abe that would be funded entirely by the government. A group of around 200 demonstrators took to the streets of Tokyo on August 16 to protest against the decision to use taxpayer funds.

The cabinet decided that the state funeral would be held on September 27 at the Nippon Budokan in central Tokyo.
