Why is it only in Japan?

From what I understand the Switch consoles that are destined to EU and NA are made somewhere else so they are not affected.

Edit: Read up a bit on it and last summer they moved some production to Vietnam. 

“For the past several years, we have been exploring options for assembling product in Vietnam to diversify our manufacturing options," the company said in a statement to USA TODAY. "While we will continue to manufacture Nintendo Switch consoles in China, we will also gradually begin to manufacture a portion of our consoles in Vietnam, starting this summer.”

Thank God for that move or else the situation would be much worse.
