As for 'correction of entries or additional entries in the Record in case of detecting any errors,' the old Kotofu Rei stipulated that it be done based on 'advisories from Imperial Household Council and Privy Council (Japan)' and 'Imperial decision' (the old Article 5, Paragraphs 1-2 inclusive,) whereas the existing Kotofu Rei stipulates that 'the Grand Steward of the Imperial Household Agency negotiate with Minister of Justice and carry out the said correction' (the existing Article 3, Item 2).
「皇統譜の登録又は附記に錯誤を発見した場合の訂正」は、旧令では「皇族会議及枢密院(日本)ノ諮詢」および「勅裁」を経て行うと定めたが（旧5条1項2項）、現行令では「宮内庁長官が、法務大臣と協議して、これを行う」と定めた（現3条2号）。
