Background: Complexity of Transportation Industry Filings

Since April 2024, overtime work regulations (960 hours per year) have also been applied to driving operations. The "2024 problem" has led to an increase in businesses reviewing their operation management systems and vehicle numbers, thus increasing the types and frequency of required filings.

According to statistics from the Japan Trucking Association, there are approximately 62,000 trucking companies, with over 99% being small and medium-sized businesses (Source: Japan Trucking Association). For companies lacking a dedicated management department, managing multiple filings by their deadlines presents a significant burden.

New Tool's Functionality

The transportation industry filing checker automatically identifies necessary filings by simply inputting the business's basic information and recent changes.

Input Fields

Permit Type (General Cargo / Specific Cargo / Light Cargo)
Permit Date
Number of Owned Vehicles
Number and Location of Business Offices
Changes in the Past Year (Vehicle Numbers / Business Offices / Executives / Operation Managers)

Check Results

List of Required Filings (including submission destination, deadline, and necessary documents)
Alerts for Expired or Approaching Deadlines
Next Permit Renewal Date (every 5 years)
Deadline for Filing Changes in Financial Statements

Filings Requiring Special Attention Due to the 2024 Problem

Operation Manager Change Notification

If operation managers are increased or changed to comply with overtime limits, notification is required within 30 days.

Vehicle Number Change Notification

If vehicles are reduced due to driver shortages, prior notification is required. Falling below the minimum vehicle requirement (5 vehicles) can result in permit revocation.

Standard Freight Rate Notification

Businesses are urged to charge appropriate freight rates, referencing the "standard freight rates" notified by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. The checker can also confirm the status of freight rate table notifications.

Businesses in the transportation industry are encouraged to use the filing checker to verify their current filing status.

Note: This service is not an agency application under the Administrative Scrivener Act. For formal filings, please consult a professional such as an administrative scrivener.
