Protective Case Sourcing for Japan

Japanese buyers in electronics, automotive, robotics, and optics need JIS-compatible precision OEM cases with tight tolerances and long-term supply consistency — Japan handles its own customs and PSE marking.

Japan is a precision-demanding B2B market for protective cases, driven by electronics (Sony, Panasonic, Canon, Nikon), automotive (Toyota, Honda tier-1), industrial robotics (Fanuc, Yaskawa, Kawasaki), and scientific instruments. Japanese buyers emphasize: tight dimensional tolerances (±0.2mm on critical features), JIS-compatible material specs, lot-to-lot consistency for long-term supply, and detailed inspection reports in Japanese. KeXinMaterials has supplied Japanese OEMs since 2014, with EXW Shenzhen or FOB Ningbo terms. We do not ship DDP — Japanese importers handle 10% consumption tax, customs duties, and PSE (Electrical Appliance & Material Safety Act) marking for cases with electrical components.

Regulatory & Compliance

For passive cases, no PSE marking required. For cases with electrical components (sensors, fans, lighting), PSE Diamond or PSE Round mark is required — your Japanese importer typically holds the PSE registration as ' importer of record'. We manufacture under ISO9001:2015 with full REACH compliance, RoHS 3 (Japan's JIS C 0950 equivalent), and provide detailed batch traceability. JIS B 6011, JIS B 0021, and JIS K 7130 (plastics optical properties) test reports available on request.

Do you handle Japanese customs and consumption tax?
No. We ship EXW Shenzhen or FOB Ningbo. Japanese importers handle 10% consumption tax, customs duties, and PSE marking (for cases with electrical components). We provide commercial invoice, packing list, and country-of-origin declaration.
Can you meet JIS dimensional tolerances?
Yes. Standard tolerance ±0.5mm, precision OEM ±0.2mm on critical features (latch, hinge, gasket groove). We provide inspection reports with CMM measurement for ±0.1mm features on request.
Do you offer long-term supply agreement (LTA)?
Yes. For Japanese OEM clients with 2+ year programs, we offer 12-24 month LTA with fixed pricing (subject to resin index), quarterly delivery, and reserved production capacity. NDA / 保密契約 supported.
What's the lead time to Yokohama?
Bulk OEM: 30-45 days production + 4-5 days sea transit to Yokohama. Air freight: 2-3 days to Narita. Sample lead time: 7-10 days. JIT delivery available via Japanese forwarders.
