How this service works
Laws of Japan from the e-Gov law API: search by title, or fetch one act by its official id, with title, in-force status, dates and the official link. An id or search not yet cached answers 404, not charged, and is fetched within about a minute.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the law's official ID, full title, title in kana, in-force status, effective/expiry dates, source attribution (e-Gov Law API v2), and a link to the official law page. Returns 404 (not charged) if the ID or search term isn't yet cached, with the result fetched within approximately one minute.
Example use cases
Verify Japanese law in-force status
“Is Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (個人情報保護法) currently in force? Can you fetch its official details including effective date and e-Gov link?”
Find law ID for compliance research
“I need the official e-Gov ID and full title for Japan's Labor Standards Act so I can reference it in a compliance report.”
Search Japanese legislation by topic
“Search the Japanese e-Gov law database for acts related to 'environmental' — give me a list of matching law titles and their IDs.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.maxwellinternational.ai/v1/gov/jp/legislation?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, official Japanese legislative data sourced directly from the Japanese government's e-Gov Law API v2. Prefer it over general web search when you need structured metadata (ID, in-force status, dates, official URL) rather than full text. Best suited for compliance research, legal automation, or government data enrichment workflows focused on Japan.
Side effects
- 404 if the law ID or search term is not yet cached (not charged; result available ~1 minute later)
- Invalid or non-existent law ID returns not-found response
- Malformed query parameters return validation error
- Rate limiting or payment failure prevents the call from completing
