What the portal covers

These files describe specified nonprofit corporations under Japan’s NPO law. The portal includes entries before registration and can retain dissolution records. 11,152 entries have dissolution information in the administrative file. Check the official entry and the supervising authority for current status. The Cabinet Office publishes its certified-organization count separately. See the official count and dates.

The administrative source lists a corporate number on 54,382 rows that pass the National Tax Agency’s check digit. 5,671 rows have no number and 9 rows supplied a number that failed validation. 24 valid numbers occur on more than one portal row. Exact number search returns all matching entries with their original portal identifiers. The supervising authority describes where the record is administered.

How to read the financial summaries

The administrative and organization-entered CSVs have identical names in the same order for this snapshot. The organization-entered file lacks a corporate number. A financial summary appears only when the name occurs once in both files and the source supplies a year and at least one selected amount. 1,282 source rows had a selected amount. Of those, 49 had a repeated name and 12 lacked a usable year. The portal’s organization-entered data are supplied by the organization itself.

The year is the organization’s latest settlement label in this capture. Amounts remain in yen. Donations and grants received are income categories within the activity statement. The four figures describe reported finances. Individual grants, service locations and outcomes require their own records.
