pretty_name: RegBase — Japan Corporate Registry Daily Diff (Free Sample, 2026-11-06)

RegBase — Japan Corporate Registry Daily Diff · Free Sample (2026-11-06)

Japan's National Tax Agency (国税庁) publishes the national corporate registry as open data: every registered company's corporate number (法人番号), name, entity type and address. What it does not publish in a usable shape is what changed today. RegBase cuts the registry's daily diff — the registrations that were created, changed, or removed on a single day — into a clean, documented, verifiable package.

This dataset is the free sample of that work: the first 100 records of the 2026-11-06 registry diff, plus the full day's census summary.

What happened on 2026-11-06

The complete diff for the 2026-11-06 update contained 2,617 records:

Change class Count
New registrations 1,404
Changed registrations 895
Closed registrations 298
Revived registrations 20
Total 2,617

New registrations by prefecture (top 3): Tokyo 370, Osaka 128, Kanagawa 95. By municipality (top 3): Minato City, Tokyo 65; Chuo City, Tokyo 40; Chiyoda City, Tokyo 32. Cross-checked against a 3,808-company listed-company master, 6 of the day's records belonged to listed companies — all of them "changed". Full top-10 tables and the complete census are in data/.

What this data is good for

  • Building or refreshing a Japan B2B sales list
  • Catching newly incorporated companies on the day they register
  • Market and competitor research on Japanese companies
  • A first-pass check of a counterparty's registered details

Limitations — please read

  • One day only. This sample covers the 2026-11-06 update. A single day shows what happened that day; it cannot show trends.
  • The counts are the records that changed that day, not the total number of companies in Japan.
  • "Closed" means the registry record was closed that day. It is not a count of all business closures in Japan.
  • The registry has no industry/sector column. Records cannot be filtered by industry.
  • Record accuracy follows the source publication (National Tax Agency).

The full products

This sample is the top of the RegBase funnel. The complete, verifiable packages — each shipped with a signed file list (a manifest carrying a digital stamp, Ed25519; if any file changes, the stamp stops matching) so you can confirm the files are byte-for-byte what RegBase produced:

A free sample of the snapshot's summary (counts and the column reference) is also available before purchase — see the product page above.

The underlying registry data is public data published by Japan's National Tax Agency (法人番号公表サイト) as open data; its use follows the source's published terms. RegBase's own work in this dataset — the record selection, the census summaries, and this documentation — is the compilation layer described above; please credit RegBase and the National Tax Agency when reusing the summary files. The sample records themselves remain source data: consult the National Tax Agency's terms for redistribution of registry records.
