The reports you get for Japan

Japan: GHG statement with the mandatory reporting (SHK) check

For businesses in Japan checking whether they are a specified emitter under the Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures, and suppliers asked for Scope 1, 2 and 3 by Prime Market companies reporting under the SSBJ standards.

Where it goes: Specified emitters report to the ministry that covers their business. Everyone else sends it to the customer that asked.

Energy in GJ. Carries your Corporate Number. The app checks whether the rules' thresholds apply to you from your own figures.

Rules from: Ministry of the Environment: mandatory GHG accounting and reporting system; FSA: roadmap for SSBJ sustainability disclosure (Nov 2025); GHG Protocol Corporate Standard (WRI/WBCSD).

GHG Protocol inventory with IFRS S2 metrics (any country)

For any business asked for its carbon footprint, wherever it is. The GHG Protocol is the method behind almost every national scheme, and IFRS S2 is the standard more than 30 jurisdictions are adopting.

Where it goes: To the customer, lender, investor or tender that asked.

Energy in MWh. Carries your Company number.

Rules from: GHG Protocol Corporate Standard (WRI/WBCSD); IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures, paragraph 29(a) (ISSB).

UK reports too

Selling to the UK? The SECR report and the PPN 006 Carbon Reduction Plan that UK public sector tenders need are on every plan as well.

Electricity in Japan

Sites in Japan use Ember's open figure for the national grid, not the UK's. Japan's grid averaged 477 g CO2e per kWh in 2025. See every year and the source.

Paying from Japan

You pay by card in Japanese yen. At checkout you give your business's VAT, GST or tax number where your country has one: the sale is then made without UK VAT, and any local tax on services bought from abroad is handled under your country's own rules, as it is for other overseas software. Invoices come from Stripe, in Japanese yen.

Prices are the UK prices converted at the European Central Bank euro foreign exchange reference rates for 2026-10-19, rounded to a price ending in 9, and fixed in Japanese yen: they don't move with the exchange rate. Any change follows the 30 days' notice in our terms. Report rules checked on 2026-10-19 from the official sources linked above; this page is a guide, not legal or tax advice. Fuels, travel and purchases use the UK Government GHG Conversion Factors (DESNZ), which follow IPCC methods, and each country's electricity uses the figure named above.
