Export to Japan 4: Japan Industrial Standard, Rules of Origin, Intellectual Property Right, Geographical Indicators

October 14 2020

14-10-20 | 10:30 - 11:00 AM CET

What should you know when exporting to Japan on Japan Industrial Standard (JIS), Preferential Rules of Origin (RoO), and Intellectual Property Right (IPR)?

Various EU products and services began to enjoy benefits from the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) which entered in force on 1 February 2019, and we are seeing a considerable increase of EU exports to Japan.  But yet many EU exporters, particularly small and medium-scaled enterprises (SMEs) perceive access to Japanese market difficult because of unfamiliar trade and business practices.

This is a series of online training which presents the latest market information available in 2020 and explain in practical terms the most important things that EU companies should know when exporting to Japan so that the benefits of free trade can become more widely available to EU exporters for the second year of the EU-Japan EPA.

The topic of this online session is general rules on trade with Japan.
