Services for Non-Japanese Speakers

Tax and accounting obligations invariably follow the receipt of income, and this is no different in Japan.  However the system here can be onerous, even for Japanese native speakers to navigate, let alone expatriates.  The number of expatriates and locally hired foreign workers has been increasing in recent years in Japan, alongside more entrepreneurs and business-owners.  Tax compliance procedures and the tax treatment for these individuals can be different from that of Japanese citizens.  This can be difficult for individuals and small or medium sized companies to deal with.   All of our associates have acquired experience and expertise within a Big4 environment, in a wide variety of areas.  We put ourselves in your shoes and are committed to providing a high quality service to our clients and to giving you clear, understandable explanations of rules and systems that can be deeply complex.
