Certificate of Inspection
Under Japan’s Building Standards Act, newly constructed or renovated buildings must undergo inspections to ensure they meet legal standards. After construction is completed, a designated inspector or authority conducts an on-site inspection and issues a certificate based on the results, called Certificate of Inspection(検査済証). This certificate proves that the building meets the standards of the Building Standards Act and is safe. It is extremely important in real estate transactions. If a building doesn’t have this certificate, it could affect the property’s value and impact loans or insurance.
