  In Japan, conducting ICOs is regulated by the Financial Services Agency (FSA). ICOs are considered securities offerings and must comply with the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. This means that ICO issuers need to register with the FSA and provide necessary documentation, such as a business plan and financial statements. Additionally, ICOs must adhere to anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) regulations. It's important for ICO projects to consult with legal experts to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations.
