Summary

The e-Gov law update list records a Cabinet Order amending the Enforcement Order of the Act on Currency Units and Issuance of Coins (Reiwa 8 Cabinet Order No. 285). The metadata lists a promulgation date and effective date of 2026-09-16. The affected instrument is listed as the Cabinet Order on the form of the 50,000-yen coin commemorating the marriage of Crown Prince Naruhito (Heisei 5 Cabinet Order No. 163).

Business Impact

The change appears to concern the specifications of a commemorative coin and may have limited relevance for most businesses. Entities that handle, collect, or deal in commemorative coins could possibly be affected, though the metadata does not say how.

Recommended Action
