消費者契約法 | 消費者庁

This page outlines the Consumer Contract Act, enacted on April 1, 2001, to protect consumer interests amid information and negotiating power disparities between consumers and businesses. It specifies rules regarding contract cancellation due to unfair solicitation and invalidity of unfair contract terms. The 2006 amendment introduced a consumer group litigation system, later expanded to cover the Act against Unjustifiable Premiums and Misleading Representations and the Specified Commercial Transaction Act. Subsequent amendments in 2016, 2018, and 2022 added unfair solicitation practices subject to cancellation and unfair contract terms subject to invalidity.
