What is a "Certificate of Applicability"?

This document is necessary to determine whether or not a product related to export falls under security trade control regulations (Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act = Foreign Exchange Act).
A document that states whether an item to be exported or provided falls under "Export Trade Control Order, Appendix 1" or "Foreign Exchange Order, Appendix" is called a "Certificate of Applicability."


Conclusion: The Certificate of Applicability is an important document required when exporting a product. Depending on the export country and product, you may be required to submit it.


Why is it necessary?

From the perspective of international security and preventing diversion for military use, export controls on high-tech products and advanced materials are being strengthened.
The presence or absence of a certificate of applicability directly affects the decision on whether or not to export, and if applicable, the need to apply for an export license to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
