  A consumer may rescind an offer or acceptance of an offer if any of the actions set forth in the following items taken by the business operator in soliciting the consumer to enter into a consumer contract caused the consumer to be under a mistaken belief prescribed in the items and as a result made the offer or communicated the acceptance:

    **二**  物品、権利、役務その他の当該消費者契約の目的となるものに関し、将来におけるその価額、将来において当該消費者が受け取るべき金額その他の将来における変動が不確実な事項につき断定的判断を提供すること。　当該提供された断定的判断の内容が確実であるとの誤認

    providing a conclusive assessment of future prices, amount of money that a consumer will receive in the future, or any other matters whose changes in the future is uncertain, in connection with goods, rights, services or other things that may be the subject matter of a consumer contract:a mistaken belief that the conclusive assessment provided is certain.

  **第二項**  消費者は、事業者が消費者契約の締結について勧誘をするに際し、当該消費者に対してある重要事項又は当該重要事項に関連する事項について当該消費者の利益となる旨を告げ、かつ、当該重要事項について当該消費者の不利益となる事実（当該告知により当該事実が存在しないと消費者が通常考えるべきものに限る。）を故意又は重大な過失によって告げなかったことにより、当該事実が存在しないとの誤認をし、それによって当該消費者契約の申込み又はその承諾の意思表示をしたときは、これを取り消すことができる。ただし、当該事業者が当該消費者に対し当該事実を告げようとしたにもかかわらず、当該消費者がこれを拒んだときは、この限りでない。

  A consumer may rescind an offer or acceptance of an offer if a business operator, in soliciting the consumer to enter into a consumer contract, conveys to the consumer that an important matter or matters related to the important matter would be advantageous to the consumer, but fails to convey an important fact that would be disadvantageous to the consumer intentionally or in gross negligence (limited to a fact that a consumer would normally think to be non-existent based on what has been conveyed), causing the consumer to mistakenly believe that the fact in question does not exist and therefore the consumer made the offer or communicated the acceptance; provided, however, that this does not apply if the business operator has attempted to convey the fact to the consumer and the consumer has rejected the attempt.
  <sup>Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System</sup>

  **第三項**  消費者は、事業者が消費者契約の締結について勧誘をするに際し、当該消費者に対して次に掲げる行為をしたことにより困惑し、それによって当該消費者契約の申込み又はその承諾の意思表示をしたときは、これを取り消すことができる。

  A consumer may rescind an offer or acceptance of an offer in a consumer contract if the consumer manifested that intention as a result of being overwhelmed by any of the following actions taken by the business operator in soliciting the consumer to enter into the consumer contract:

    **四**  当該消費者が当該消費者契約の締結について勧誘を受けている場所において、当該消費者が当該消費者契約を締結するか否かについて相談を行うために電話その他の内閣府令で定める方法によって当該事業者以外の者と連絡する旨の意思を示したにもかかわらず、威迫する言動を交えて、当該消費者が当該方法によって連絡することを妨げること。

    despite the consumer expressing an intent to contact a person other than the business operator by telephone or other means specified by Cabinet Office Order in order to have a consultation on whether or not to enter into the contract, using intimidating words and deeds and preventing the consumer from making the contact in a place where the consumer is being solicited to enter into the consumer contract;

    while knowing that a consumer who has little life experience is overly worried about fulfilling the aspirations regarding the following matters, the business operator prompts fears of the consumers and conveys that the goods, rights, services and any other things for the purpose of the consumer contracts are necessary to fulfill the consumer's aspirations although there are no reasonable grounds or rational basis supporting that necessity, in matters such as:

    a consumer who has little life experience develops romantic feelings or other favorable feelings toward a business operator that solicits consumer contracts and knowing that the consumer may mistakenly believe that the business operator has reciprocal feelings toward the consumer, the business operator takes advantage of this situation, tells the consumer that the relationship between them will fail unless the consumer enters into the contract;
    <sup>Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System</sup>

    **七**  当該消費者が、加齢又は心身の故障によりその判断力が著しく低下していることから、生計、健康その他の事項に関しその現在の生活の維持に過大な不安を抱いていることを知りながら、その不安をあおり、裏付けとなる合理的な根拠がある場合その他の正当な理由がある場合でないのに、当該消費者契約を締結しなければその現在の生活の維持が困難となる旨を告げること。

    while knowing that a consumer is overly worried about maintaining their current life with respect to livelihoods, health and other matters because their decision-making capacity is extremely diminished due to aging or mental and physical disorders, the business operator takes advantage of the situation, prompts their fears and although there are no reasonable grounds for supporting solicitation nor any other rational basis, the business operator states that it will be difficult for the consumer to maintain their current life unless the consumer enters into the consumer contract;
    <sup>Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System</sup>

    **八**  当該消費者に対し、霊感その他の合理的に実証することが困難な特別な能力による知見として、当該消費者又はその親族の生命、身体、財産その他の重要な事項について、そのままでは現在生じ、若しくは将来生じ得る重大な不利益を回避することができないとの不安をあおり、又はそのような不安を抱いていることに乗じて、その重大な不利益を回避するためには、当該消費者契約を締結することが必要不可欠である旨を告げること。

    in order to fuel their fear, the business operator indicates to the consumer that supernatural senses or other special abilities, that are difficult reasonably to verify, have shown that it would be impossible to avoid a serious misfortune that could happen in the present or future to the life, body, property, or other important matter of the consumer or a relative of the consumer unless the consumer takes certain measures, or takes advantage of the fact that the consumer holds such fear, and informs the consumer that entering into the consumer contract is indispensable for avoiding those serious misfortunes;

    before a consumer makes a manifestation of intention of an offer for a consumer contract or acceptance of such an offer, the business operator implements, in whole or in part, the obligations that are supposed to be fulfilled when the consumer enters into the contract, or changes the substance of the subject matter of the consumer contract, thus making it extremely difficult to restore the situation to the original status before the implementation or change; and
    <sup>Ministry of Justice translation — Japanese Law Translation Database System</sup>

    **十**  前号に掲げるもののほか、当該消費者が当該消費者契約の申込み又はその承諾の意思表示をする前に、当該事業者が調査、情報の提供、物品の調達その他の当該消費者契約の締結を目指した事業活動を実施した場合において、当該事業活動が当該消費者からの特別の求めに応じたものであったことその他の取引上の社会通念に照らして正当な理由がある場合でないのに、当該事業活動が当該消費者のために特に実施したものである旨及び当該事業活動の実施により生じた損失の補償を請求する旨を告げること。

    in addition to what is provided for in the preceding item, when the business operator performs investigations, provides information, procures goods, or performs other business activities aiming at concluding a consumer contract before the consumer makes a manifestation of intention of an offer for a consumer contract or acceptance of such an offer, tells the consumer that the business activities have been performed in particular for the consumer, and also requests compensation for time and efforts expended for those business activities despite the fact that there was no special request from the consumer for those business activities, nor any reasonable grounds in light of other business social norms.

  A consumer may rescind an offer or acceptance of an offer in a consumer contract if the business operator knew in soliciting the consumer to enter into the consumer contract, that the quantity, the frequency, or the duration (hereinafter referred to in this paragraph as a "quantity, frequency, or duration") of the goods, rights, services or other things for the purpose of the consumer contract greatly exceeded the normal quantity, frequency, or duration for a consumer (meaning the quantity, frequency, or duration that would normally be presumed to be that of the purpose of such a consumer contract in light of the terms and the subject matter of the contract, the consumer's situation in life at the time of the business operator's solicitation to enter into the contract, and the consumer's awareness of this; hereinafter the same applies in this paragraph), and if the consumer manifested the intention to be bound based on that solicitation. The same applies if a business operator knew in soliciting a consumer to enter into a consumer contract, that the consumer had already entered into another consumer contract whose purpose was of the same type as the purpose of the consumer contract the business operator was soliciting (hereinafter referred to in this paragraph as the "contract of the same type") and the total quantity, frequency, or duration of the purpose of the contract of the same type and that of the consumer contract in question greatly exceeds the normal quantity, frequency, or duration for a consumer, and the consumer manifested the intention to be bound based on that solicitation.
