They keep the Cabinet Order number they were issued under, which is why e-Gov lists the law as an Act while its number says 政令 (Cabinet Order). The Immigration Control and Refugee Recognition Act (出入国管理及び難民認定法) is one: it was promulgated in 1951 as the Immigration Control Order (出入国管理令), Cabinet Order No. 319 of 1951, has had the force of an Act under Article 4 of Act No. 126 of 1952, took its present title on 1 January 1982, and every amendment on e-Gov's record of it was made by an Act. - Provision: 第一条 (Supplementary Provisions, Article 1)（施行期日） — address `suppl-5061-60/art-1` - Text in force since: 2026-10-01 - URL (the page that opens at this provision): https://japanlaw.org/ja/immigration-control-act/suppl-5061-60/art-1 - e-Gov law ID: 326CO0000000319 — never renamed.
