Japan Pet Food Safety Act Enforcement Order (Cabinet Order No. 366 of 2008) — scope limited to dogs and cats; export exemption (施行令 犬及び猫)
Verbatim first-hand articles from the Enforcement Order of the Pet Food Safety Act (Cabinet Order No. 366 of 2008), retrieved from the official e-Gov legal database API. Japanese original is the C1-verified text (each clause a byte-substring of the saved source file); an English gloss follows each clause. This Order is the definitive first-hand statement of the Act's species scope: 'pet animals' under the Act = dogs and cats only. It is the legal basis for the dog/cat-axis observation recorded in exotic_pet_food_china_dog_cat_axis (exotic species fall outside the pet-feed safety regime).
