METI Filing FAQs!

2021-08-06

METI is registered in Japan, and all products certified by PSE must be registered with METI; therefore, more and more companies are asking Micro-Test for questions related to METI filing. This editor has specially compiled 7 frequently asked questions about METI filing.


1: Can PSE certification and METI filing be carried out at the same time when doing Japanese certification?


cannot be done at the same time. The product must be certified by PSE first, and after obtaining the PSE certificate, it can go to the METI record.


2: Can a METI filing document correspond to all products?


This is not possible. One PSE certification corresponds to one METI filing file. If the PSE certificate corresponds to multiple models, the model in this certificate can be filed for one-time filing.


3: My product already has PSE certification, can I do METi filing directly in Microtest?


Yes, you need to provide the following information:


1) Application form for opening a case;


2) PSE test report For products with batteries or adapters, batteries and adapters also require PSE test reports;


3) Product manual (Japanese + English);


4) Product specification (BOM, product photos);


5) Difference statement (if there is a series model)


4: I have a product that is a power adapter with a lithium battery. The power adapter already has the METI filing document, so can the lithium battery use the same METI filing document?


cannot be shared. The METI filing document of the power adapter belongs to the category of [AC Electrical Machinery Appliances], while the METI filing of the lithium battery belongs to the category of [Lithium battery storage battery], so two METi filing documents are required.


5: How long does the METI filing cycle take, can the laboratory be expedited?


The METI filing cycle is generally 5-7 working days. If the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (a Japanese government department) can issue it in time, the fastest 3 working days can be expedited to review and issue the certificate. After the certificate is issued, it will be sent to the customer as soon as possible. .


Note: The above cycle is based on the preparation of the data.


6: Does the METI record have original paper documents?


There are two types of METI filing: the first one has importer qualifications, and the second one does not have importer qualifications (requires an agency). If the customer provides the Japanese importer information by himself, the original document will be sent directly to the local Japanese importer; if the importer information provided by the agency company is used, there is no paper file, and the original document is kept in the Japanese importer for archives !


7: The product has already been certified by PSE, and the certification certificate has also been submitted, but Amazon has notified that it needs a certificate of graduation from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan. What should I do?


At present, products that are exported to Japan and have applied for PSE certification are required to report to METI Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry! This step is called METI filing.
