Shift JIS (Shift Japanese Industrial Standards, also SJIS, MIME name Shift_JIS, known as PCK in Solaris contexts)[2][3] is a character encoding for the Japanese language, originally developed by the Japanese company ASCII Corporation[b] in conjunction with Microsoft and standardized as JIS X 0208 Appendix 1.
Shift JIS is based on character sets defined within JIS standards JIS X 0201:1997 (for the single-byte characters) and JIS X 0208:1997 (for the double-byte characters).
As of April 2024[update], 0.3% of surveyed web pages used Shift JIS (actually decoded as its superset Windows-31J encoding), a decline from 1.3% in July 2014.[4] Shift JIS is the second-most declared character encoding for Japanese websites, used by 5.2% of sites in the .jp domain, while UTF-8 is used by 94.8% of Japanese websites.[5][6]
