Three words to solve the problem of Japanese electrical product compliance: understand the classification of PSE certification, prepare the corresponding documents, the correct marking of the PSE logo. With Taiwan manufacturers actively expanding into the international market, Japan, as a powerhouse of electrical appliances, has become a major challenge for many cross-border sellers with its unique product safety requirements.
Do you know what kind of electrical products can enter the Japanese market smoothly? The answer is in the Electrical Appliance and Material Safety Law (PSE). It's not just a certificate, it's the golden key to unlocking Japan's market of 126 million people!
PSE certification divides electrical products into two categories: 116 "specified electrical appliances" (Category A) require the diamond-shaped PSE Mark, while 341 "non-specified electrical appliances" (Category B) use the round-shaped PSE Mark. This categorization is not arbitrary! Category A products are considered to have a higher risk during use, such as AC adapters, power extension cords, etc., while Category B includes relatively safe products such as televisions, air conditioners, and LED lights.
For example, if you want to sell AC adaptors (Category A products) on Amazon Japan, you must provide a copy of the business plan, a photo of the label, and a certificate of conformity, etc., whereas for selling LED lights (Category B products), you need simpler documents such as a copy of the business plan, a photo of the label, and so on.
What's more, Amazon Japan has special rules for lithium-ion batteries and completely bans the sale of all cylindrical lithium-ion batteries! This is an important detail that many Taiwanese sellers tend to overlook.
Whether you're looking for AC adapters, LED lights, home heating equipment or cooking appliances, Amazon Japan has detailed product categorizations and corresponding compliance requirements. Being aware of these requirements will not only help you avoid the risk of having your products removed from the shelves, but will also help you stand out in the highly competitive Japanese market.
