Investment Firms Authorised in Japan
Every entry FSA list of registered Crypto Asset Exchange Service Providers holds for Japan — what each firm is authorised as, when, and which authorisations have since been withdrawn.
What this register covers. Payment Services Act registration of crypto-asset exchange service providers — a full business authorisation, NOT an anti-money-laundering enrolment. A firm listed here may hold no permission for anything else, and a firm absent from it may be lawfully authorised under a regime this register does not cover. If the firm you are checking offered you crypto, start with the guided check.
An authorisation is not an endorsement. The Financial Services Agency publishes that a provider is registered under the Payment Services Act. That is a record of a permission, not a recommendation, and not a statement that the provider is safe. The Agency's own note on this list adds that it "does not guarantee or endorse the value of these crypto-assets". No firm on this page is scored, ranked or assessed by us, there is no green tick anywhere on this site, and lists are ordered alphabetically so that the order cannot be read as a judgement either.

What Grouping by Japan Means Here
This is the jurisdiction whose authority recorded the authorisation — not necessarily the only place the firm operates. A firm authorised here may serve clients elsewhere, and a firm serving clients here may be authorised elsewhere.
So a firm being absent from your own country’s page does not mean it cannot lawfully deal with you, and its being present does not mean it may do everything. The register overview explains what the permissions are and what falls outside them.
