Abstract: A vehicle occupant notification apparatus provides a notification to a vehicle occupant by retracting a seatbelt of a vehicle and includes an operation-amount measuring instrument, an arithmetic controller, and a retraction device. The operation-amount measuring instrument measures a measurement seatbelt operation amount when the vehicle occupant sits on a seat of the vehicle and fastens the seatbelt. The measurement seatbelt operation amount is either one of a measurement seatbelt pull-out amount and a measurement seatbelt pull-out angle. The arithmetic controller determines whether the measurement seatbelt operation amount is larger than or equal to a predetermined value. The retraction device varies a retraction amount in the retraction of the seatbelt when the notification is to be provided by retracting the seatbelt based on a command from the arithmetic controller. The command indicates that the measurement seatbelt operation amount is larger than or equal to the predetermined value.
