We just went through this exercise recently and, yes that is correct, someone in Japan must take the responsibility as the Reporting Supplier (Importer) of the product. If you do not have an importer in place, or a subsidiary in Japan, who can take on the responsibility then your customer must take on this task. The reporting suppliers name must appear under the applicable PSE Mark on your product label. In addition there are other reporting responsibilities the Reporting Supplier must perform and these vary somewhat depending on which PSE Mark you must have on your product the Diamond or Circle Mark.
Take a look at these links as they may help you understand the reporting and labeling requirements. http://www.jetro.go.jp/se/e/standards_regulation/index.html http://www.vcci.or.jp/vcci_e/index.html http://www.jate.or.jp/index-e.html The Jetro site is excellent and has a guide to understanding the regulations which you can download Hope this helps...............

I have been told that the Japanese METI" (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) has a regulation that the importers name or logo must be on the product. Has anyone had experience with this requirement. Or can point me to where I can find the information. Thank you in advance.
