Japanese electronics market: METI filing requirements

In today's globalized world, Japan, as an important market for electronic products, attracts manufacturers and suppliers from all over the world. However, entering this market is not easy and companies need to follow strict regulations and standards, including the filing requirements of Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI). METI filing is not only a guarantee of product quality and safety, but also a necessary step in a company's compliance operations.

METI filing purpose

The main purpose of METI filing is to ensure the safety and compliance of electronic products, protect consumer rights and promote the healthy and orderly development of the market. Through filing, METI can monitor and manage the quality and safety of electronic products and prevent non-conforming products from entering the market, thus protecting the life and property of consumers.

Almost all electronic products sold in Japan are subject to METI filing, including but not limited to:

1. Household appliances

2. Consumer electronics

3. Communication equipment

4, industrial electronic equipment

5, electronic components

METI filing period

METI filings are generally valid for a long period of time, but will need to be re-filed if there is a significant change in product specifications or technology.
