Summary

The Act Partially Amending the Code of Civil Procedure and Other Laws (Act No. 48 of 2022) amends the Design Act (Act No. 125 of 1959). The listing records both the promulgation date and the effective date as 2022-05-25, but does not describe the amended provisions.

Business Impact

Design right holders and design applicants may be affected by the Design Act amendment, rather than solely by changes to general civil procedure; the listing does not establish the practical effects.

Recommended Action

Reviewing the official Japanese source could clarify which Design Act provisions were amended and how the listed effective date applies to them.
