Why the Japanese Market

The World's 3rd Largest Market / Gateway to Asia

Challenges of Entering the Japanese Market

Attractiveness of the Japanese Market

  • Japan is the third-largest pharmaceutical country in the world, following the United States and China.
  • Thanks to the universal health insurance system, patients can receive advanced medical care at relatively low cost (typically only 30% of total medical expenses) and freely choose medical institutions.
  • Rapid reimbursement process: Drug prices are generally listed within 60 days after marketing approval.
