Summary

This is a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) press release reporting on the status of large-scale land acquisitions by foreign individuals and foreign corporations. According to the title, the figures are aggregated from notifications filed under the National Land Use Planning Act for the period July to December 2025 (Reiwa 7). The metadata does not include the actual figures or findings.

Business Impact

This appears to be a statistical report rather than a new rule, so it may have limited direct compliance impact. It could, however, be relevant context for foreign investors or real estate parties who follow land-acquisition notification trends in Japan.
