Overview

Chamber or export council membership certificate for Japan: what and why

Membership of a chamber of commerce or an export promotion council shows that your business is an established, recognised exporter. Foreign buyers and authorities sometimes ask for the membership certificate or RCMC when registering suppliers. Membership certificates are issued by Indian chambers of commerce and export promotion councils (for example the RCMC).

Distributors and regulators in Asia often ask for legalised licences and registrations when approving a new Indian supplier.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Japan usually ask for a legalised chamber or export council membership certificate for supplier registration, tenders or exporter verification by buyers.

A chamber or export council membership certificate issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Japan accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
