VOLUNTARY REQUIREMENTS
The Japan Toy Safety Standard (ST Standard) and the ST Mark Scheme established by the Japan Toy Association provide toy manufacturers, retailers and consumers with additional safeguards for toys intended for children up to the age of 14.


Imported and manufactured toys for Japan should be tested by a designated testing laboratory to demonstrate conformity to the Food Sanitation Law and/or the ST Standard.


STC is a designated overseas testing laboratory in Hong Kong for both, endorsed by the Japan Toy Association and Ministry of Health, Labour & Welfare.
