 |
| Warehousing as the industry in
which received goods are stored in warehouses plays a vital role in logistics
within Japan. Accordingly to ensure the appropriate operation of the warehousing
industry in Japan the Warehousing Law has been enacted. In recent years
given the demand for greater efficiency in distribution and more intense
competition in the industry, the necessity to ease government regulations
has been increasing. In response partial amendments to the Warehousing Law
centering on a change from the entry regulations licensing system to a registration
system, abolition of the prior notification fee system and legislating of
the trunk room authorization system, were promulgated on June 8, 2001, and
enacted on April 1, 2002. |
