You may use the Safety Net (Japanese Only) system to create and submit the following documents online:
- Notification of manufacturing or import business (Article 6)
- Notification of change to particulars of the notification of business (Article 8)
- Notification of discontinuation of manufacturing or import business (Article 9)
- Notification of labeling of registered trademarks (Appended Table 1 of the Ministerial Order)

See the Safety Net website and the Regulatory instructions below for more details on the procedures and document submissions.

Safety Net is a system that allows you to complete application procedures related to the industrial safety and product safety laws and regulations. You can fill out application forms, submit them, check the screening progress, and see notices issued to you without having to visit a government office. In June 2020, submission of application forms became possible via the Simple Application Form on Safety Net if your application forms and attachments are in PDF format, even for legal procedures that did not originally support online applications.
