Japan’s consumer product recall notices (リコール情報): recalls, refunds, repairs and replacements of food, appliances, household goods, clothing, vehicles and other consumer products, as published by the Consumer Affairs Agency (消費者庁).

Tools

• jp_recalls_search(query?, category?, date_from?, date_to?, limit?, page?) — search the recall list by Japanese keyword (full-width and half-width are normalised), optionally within one category. Returns id, title, company, product, remedy type, category, posting date and action start date, plus data_as_of, the list searched and the total the publisher reports. With no keyword and no category it returns the newly registered list. One page per call; date filters apply to the fetched page and the response says how many rows they hid.
• jp_recall_get(id) — one notice in full: product, company, remedy, reason and hazard, affected models/lots/quantity as stated, action start date, the referring ministry and the link to the official notice. Unknown id returns found:false.

Data sources

• Consumer Affairs Agency (消費者庁), Japan: recall information site, which brings together recall notices filed by the ministries responsible for each product area.

Read live per request; nothing is stored. The text of each notice is Japanese.

Traps worth knowing:

• The publisher’s search is a plain form post, and an empty keyword with no category is refused by the publisher, so the pack switches to the newly registered list in that case.
• The publisher caps the keyword at 30 characters and does not match half-width katakana; the pack normalises first.
• Company contact details on a notice are deliberately not returned. The notice link has them.
• Recall notices are issued by many ministries (METI for electrical goods, MHLW for food, MLIT for vehicles); this site lists them together, so vehicle recalls here are the consumer-facing summary, not the full transport ministry register.
