Re: Application for Withdrawal of Post Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration
Statement on Form F-6 (No. 333-7222)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Citibank N.A., as depositary (the "Depositary") acting solely on behalf of the
legal entity created by the agreement contained in the American Depositary
Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), each representing one
(1) common share, of Kyocera Corporation (the "Company"), hereby requests,
pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as
amended, that (i) the Post Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement
on Form F-6 (No. 333-7222) (the "Registration Statement") filed on December 3,
2007 be withdrawn effective as of the date of this letter (or as soon thereafter
as possible) and (ii) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
consent to such withdrawal.

The Depositary is requesting the withdrawal of the Registration Statement and
the Commission's consent thereto because the Depositary has become aware that
certain old language was inadvertently included in the filing.

No ADSs have been issued pursuant to this Registration Statement.

This request is also being submitted electronically through EDGAR.

If any members of the Commission staff have questions regarding this request,
please feel free to contact me at 212-816-6647 or thomas.crane@citi.com

Very truly yours,


/s/ Thomas Crane

Director
Citibank, N.A.
