As Japan updates its Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA), the regulatory landscape for product safety, especially for children’s goods and online marketplaces, is rapidly evolving. These revisions introduce new responsibilities and compliance obligations, particularly for overseas businesses selling products into Japan. Understanding these regulatory changes is essential for manufacturers, importers and digital platform providers looking to succeed in this competitive market.

Join our free webinar for a comprehensive overview of Japan’s latest CPSA amendments. Our expert presenters will cover the updated safety requirements, enforcement frameworks and the impact on overseas businesses, including the role of digital platform providers (DPFs). You will gain practical insights on how to navigate these changes and meet Japan’s enhanced consumer protection standards. The session will conclude with a Q&A to address your questions and provide actionable guidance.
