Proxies
Japan is one of the most distinctive scraping markets on the planet — high e-commerce penetration, mature consumer credit and a uniquely Japanese-language SERP, app-store and marketplace landscape that no generic proxy pool can serve well. ProxyGen's Japanese residential pool covers around 1.1 million IPs sourced from the major JP consumer ISPs across fibre, DSL and 4G/5G mobile, with city-level targeting in Tokyo, Osaka, Yokohama, Nagoya, Sapporo and the rest of the top 50 metros. Japanese marketplaces and SERPs serve materially different content to JP-located IPs versus generic Asia routes — running market research from a real JP residential IP is the difference between accurate data and a tourist view. Pay-as-you-go from $1.19/GB.

Inside the Japan residential network
Real IPs sourced across Japan's major carriers and networks, so your traffic looks exactly like a local residential user, not a data center.
What teams build with Japan proxies
JP e-commerce price intelligence
Track leading Japanese marketplaces and retail platforms at scale. Real JP consumer-ISP IPs surface the Japanese-locale catalogue, JPY pricing and shipping options invisible to generic Asia traffic.
Japanese SERP & ranking tracking
Track Japanese search engine SERPs from JP-located IPs. SERP composition changes significantly based on user-language and geo signalling; a real Tokyo or Osaka residential IP delivers what a local searcher actually sees.
Mobile-app store scraping
Japanese app stores rank apps differently for JP-located users — ranking accuracy depends on routing through real Japanese residential IPs rather than colocated tunnels.
Classifieds & second-hand market monitoring
Japanese classifieds and second-hand marketplaces are some of the largest in the world. Real JP residential IPs are necessary to surface listing pricing and stock visibility that geo-rate-limits foreign traffic.
Drop in a Japan IP
One endpoint, one set of credentials, no per-region config. Add the country code to your username and you are live in Japan. Up to 90-minute sticky sessions per identity.

How many Japanese residential IPs are in the pool?
Approximately 1.1 million JP residential IPs at any given moment, distributed across the major Japanese consumer ISPs. Coverage is strongest in the Greater Tokyo and Kansai regions but spans every prefecture. Pool composition refreshes continuously.
Can I target Tokyo or Osaka specifically?
Yes. Add -city-tokyo, -city-osaka, -city-yokohama, -city-nagoya, -city-sapporo or any of around 50 other named Japanese cities to your username for city-locked routing. Smaller municipalities fall back to prefecture-level or country-level routing automatically.
Are these IPs from real Japanese ISPs?
Yes. Every IP routes through a real consumer connection on a JP-allocated ISP ASN — fibre, DSL and wireless networks. We do not ship colocated IPs as 'residential'.
What is the median latency from the JP residential pool?
Around 35–60ms within Japan, 100–140ms from Singapore and the broader APAC region, 130–170ms from the US west coast and 240–280ms from continental Europe. Plan time-sensitive workloads accordingly.
Do JP proxies work for Japanese-language search and shopping?
Yes — and this is one of the strongest use cases for real JP residential IPs. SERP composition, marketplace pricing and category rankings shift noticeably for JP-geo-detected sessions; routing through a real consumer-ISP IP from Tokyo or Osaka surfaces the authentic Japanese-locale experience.
Is APPI a concern for commercial scraping?
Not for public-data scraping. APPI regulates personal-information handling — you remain the data controller for whatever you collect through the proxy. Document your lawful basis before scaling workloads that may touch personal data.
Is using Japan proxies legal?
Proxy use in Japan is lawful for commercial workloads such as price intelligence, ad verification and market research. ProxyGen complies with the Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI) and never resells session data or personal information. The Personal Information Protection Commission (PPC) is the supervisory authority. The Unauthorized Computer Access Law (不正アクセス禁止法) criminalises unauthorised access — stick to public data, honour robots.txt and avoid bypassing technical access controls on sites where you have no authorisation.
