Q1.About the annual sales amount of Eco Mark products, please tell me about the range of sales amount that would become the basis of calculation. |
| |
The sales amount that would become the basis of calculation of Annual Fees is the sales amount (excluding consumption tax) at the time of shipment from the “Utilization Contractor, Ewho has concluded a Utilization Contract with this association. For instance, in the case of a manufacturer, it is the wholesale amount sold to sales companies, etc, and in the case of a retail shop, it is the amount sold to consumers (selling price at the shop x the volume sold.) Furthermore, the sales amount to be reported is only of those sold domestically and does not include those imported overseas. On the contrary, sales amount must be reported for those made overseas that are sold within Japan. |
 |

Q2.In the event of not indicating Eco Mark, is it OK not to include in the annual sales amount ? |

Irrespective of whether the Eco Mark is used or indicated or not, please report the sales of the Eco Mark certified products (including all the types, product numbers, etc. that have been registered for certification). |

case the catalog is given free of charge, the sales amount
to be reported would be zero.) |
|

In the event that a container maker is an Eco Mark user (contractor) and it ship them to a user of the container (one who sells them by filling the container such as a bottler), please report the sales amount of the containers shipped. On the other hand, in case the container user is an Eco Mark user, the sales amount of shipment including the content would be the sales amount to be reported. |
|
| |
Q8.In the event of having a certification
on returnable containers and rental/ lease goods, how do I

of a new model was approved to Eco Mark products already certified

|
| |
Q13.In the event of having

|
| |
Q14.In the event of having
product that would reach the expiration date of certification
during the next period subject to payment, with regard to
the actual value of sales amount of the said product, is it
OK to report the amount that corresponds to the period until
the expiration date of the Utilization Contract when reporting
on the sales amount which would be used as the basis of calculation
of Annual Fees for the next period ? |
| |
Since the sales will be required for finalizing the license fee in the preceding fiscal year, according to the Eco Mark certification period as described in the "Eco Mark Product Sales Report," the sales during the period should be reported as they are. Since the finalized license fee is calculated based on the sales to be reported after expiry of the certification period in the next fiscal year, if there is any amount of overpayment or underpayment upon such calculation as compared with the license fee that has been already paid, then the difference will be settled (adjusted). |
|
| |
Q15.Are you going to investigate
the sales amount reported ? |
| |
In order to ensure proper implementation of license fee, site audit (hearing) is to be carried out and a report and explanations, etc. are to be requested to licensees using the mark (companies, etc.) that have been chosen arbitrarily every year, concerning the situation of use of the Eco Mark, situation of the manufacture and sale of the Eco Mark products, and the track record of sale (amount of products delivered), etc. Accounting slips, etc. that form the basis for the report of sales must be stored for 5 years without fail. |
|
| |
Q16.If I failed to report
the sales amount or made a false report, is there going to
be some kind of punishment ? |
| |
When failed to report the sales amount or pay Annual Fees,
or when it became clear that there was a false statement,
Eco Mark certification may be immediately revoked, annulling
all the utilization contracts in accordance with "Eco
Mark Utilization Contract and Contract" "Concerning
Eco Mark Annual Fees", etc. In this case, please take
note that the perpetrator may be subject to legal actions
including criminal punishment as it falls under improper use
of Eco Mark. |
