Establishing a FIBO Presence in Japan
• In order to conduct regulated activities as a FIBO in Japan, a registered
presence in Japan is required for most substantive activities.
• There are a number of forms that this presence may take, both as Japanese
and non-Japanese entities.
• Once a presence is registered, staffing and other organizational tasks are
required.
• The four major FIBO registrations follow a relatively similar path through the
following phases:
1. Initial draft of the application;
2. Discussions with the regulators and amendments to the application;
3. Formal submission of the application;
4. Formal reviewing period and formal review of the application; and
5. Completion of the registration.
