New Japanese station rules take effect December 25, 2025

It is reported that the new rules of Japan's Commodity Safety Law, which will officially come into effect on December 25, 2025, all sellers of affected products in the Japanese market must immediately complete compliance, or the goods will be taken off the shelves.

Amazon has now made the announcement. This includes electrical products, baby products, laser pointers, riding helmets, and gas equipment.

Figure from the Internet

01 The New Deal has three main requirements

(1) Clarify the subject of responsibility

For the first time, overseas sellers will be directly included in the Japanese regulatory system, and sellers who sell goods to Japan from overseas will be considered "specific importers" and will be subject to the same legal responsibilities as local Japanese importers.

(2) Compulsory designation of "authorized representatives of Japan"

An administrator with a legal address in Japan must be appointed to receive legal documents, submit compliance documents, and handle security incidents.

3) Product Compliance Requirements

Completion of METI filing, the product must comply with Japanese technical standards and be awarded the PSE/PSC/PSTG/PSLPG certification mark.

Otherwise, the product will be taken off the shelves and will not be able to be sold on the Japanese site, and will even be subject to legal penalties of up to 1 year in prison or a 1 million yen fine.

Note: Some products have a buffer period:

Infant and toddler toys whose importation has been completed by December 25, 2025, may continue to be sold without the need to affix the children's PSC mark;

Infant cribs: until March 24, 2027, products marked only with the traditional diamond-shaped PSC logo may still be sold.

This new regulation will affect these sellers below:

Sellers who sell goods directly to Japanese consumers from overseas;

Overseas sellers who use Amazon Logistics Services (FBA) to deliver affected items;

Sellers who sell goods in the categories of electrical, batteries for mobile devices, toys for infants and children under 36 months of age, and city gas appliances;

In the moment, sellers need to act now:

1) Confirm that the product is within the scope of regulation and check yourself against the list of the four major bills!

(2) Screening of agents in Japan with self-control, signing of a formal consignment agreement, and completion of the METI filing.

3) For product compliance, be sure to meet the new safety standards and obtain the appropriate certificates.
