Only eight Australians were on the Japan Airlines plane that burst into flames rather than the 12 initially suspected.
All Australians involved in the crash are safe and accounted for, cabinet minister Mark Butler has confirmed.
"The initial advice from the airline itself and from consular officials was that there might have been up to 12 Australians on the Japanese airline plane that was involved in that crash," he told reporters on Thursday.
"This has obviously been a terrible week for our friends in Japan with the New Year's Day quake that has cast a very, very serious death toll in that country and then the plane crash at Haneda Airport in Tokyo."
All 379 people on board the flight escaped the burning airliner after it collided with a coast guard patrol plane on the runway on Tuesday.
Australia has offered to provide any support Japan needs, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said.
