Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants

The Japanese Institute of Certified Public Accountants (JICPA) is the sole organization for Certified Public Accountants (CPA) in Japan. It was originally formed in 1949 as a self-regulatory association, and reorganized under the Certified Public Accountants Act in 1966. To practice as a CPA, a person must register with the JICPA and join its membership. The JICPA, through its various committees and project teams, carries out a wide range of activities from self-regulation to the provision of services to its members.[1]
