Call center software for Japan.

Cloud outbound dialer software for teams calling in Japan. APPI-aligned data handling, disciplined opt-out and re-solicitation controls, per-campaign calling windows, and your own carrier over BYOC SIP.

Quick answer

DialerBee is cloud call-center and outbound dialer software for teams calling in Japan, with compliance-supporting controls aligned to MIC oversight, the Act on the Protection of Personal Information and the opt-out expectations of the Specified Commercial Transactions Act. Refusals are recorded and enforced before origination so a contact who has declined is not called again, consent carries a full audit trail, calling windows are set per campaign, and Japanese carriers connect over BYOC SIP.

Key considerations

What to know about Japan outbound calling

Refusal is permanent, and enforced

Japanese telemarketing rules treat a refusal as binding — a contact who declines should not be solicited again. A refusal disposition writes to suppression and is enforced before the next campaign dials, not reconciled later.

APPI data handling

The Act on the Protection of Personal Information governs personal data in Japan. DialerBee provides per-tenant isolation, consent records with an audit trail, and configurable recording and retention policy.

Identify yourself on the call

Commercial calls are expected to identify the caller and the purpose. Scripts, mandatory statements and dispositions are configured per campaign, so the required opening is part of the flow rather than left to the agent.

Calling windows per campaign

Permitted hours are configured per campaign and enforced before the call is placed, so a Japan campaign and a campaign in another market can run on the same floor under different rules.

The same platform, wherever you dial

Rules change by country. The product does not.

Keep your own phone system

We supply the trunks, or DialerBee sits on top of the PBX you already run, or you bring a carrier trunk you already negotiated.

Browser agent desktop

WebRTC softphone with nothing to install, that also installs to a home screen and opens in its own window.

Supervisor tools

Live wallboard with listen, whisper and barge, on inbound and outbound alike.

Compliance before origination

Consent, suppression and calling windows are checked before a call is placed, per campaign.

Reporting and export

Genuine Excel workbooks and PDFs that render every script properly, not a CSV with a renamed extension.

Tenant isolation

Row-level separation and role-based access, so one client's data is never visible to another.

Questions

Calling in Japan

How does DialerBee handle re-solicitation rules?
A refusal is captured as a disposition and written to suppression, and suppression is checked before origination. That means a contact who has declined is not dialed again by a later campaign — the rule is enforced by the platform rather than depending on a list being cleaned by hand between campaigns.
How does DialerBee support APPI obligations?
Through compliance-supporting controls: consent capture with an audit trail, per-tenant data isolation, configurable recording policy and retention periods, role-based access, and reporting that evidences what was applied to each call. Responsibility for your APPI programme remains with your organisation.
Can we keep our existing telephony?
Yes. DialerBee can sit on top of a PBX or SBC you already operate — Asterisk, 3CX, Cisco CUCM, Avaya or any standards-compliant system — providing campaign management, pacing, compliance enforcement, the agent desktop and reporting while voice stays on your infrastructure.
Is the platform available in Japanese?
Japanese is available as an AI language profile — voice, greeting, register and the formality levels Japanese business calling requires — provisioned for your account. Adding a language is a profile rather than a rebuild. Tell us the markets you dial and we will confirm exactly what is in place before you commit.
Is it suitable for an inbound operation?
Yes. Inbound queueing, self-service IVR, callbacks and missed-call recovery run on the same platform as outbound, with one agent desktop, one wallboard and one set of reports.

This page is general information about outbound calling in Japan and is not legal advice. Regulations change and their application depends on your business, your data and how you use the platform. DialerBee provides compliance-supporting controls; it does not make an organisation compliant on its own. Take your own advice before launching a campaign.
