Hello, my name is Taisei Koshida, and I am a certified public accountant and tax accountant.
I aim to assist non-Japanese business owners who need help with reading or writing in Japanese. If you find the Japanese tax return system challenging, I can help you with your tax filings.
When you start a business in Japan, many costs must be generated, such as travel fees, visa-related fees, office rent-related fees, etc. Are these considered expenses for tax purposes in Japan?
1. Relevance to business
All expenses related to your business can be considered expenses within common sense for tax purposes in Japan.
2. How and when to deduct
Those expenses are considered carrying over assets for tax purposes. Then, you can deduct them whenever you like. Since less profit is often made while starting up, you can keep it as an asset until enough profit is generated. Therefore, it helps keep your business figures black.
Our accounting and tax office has been actively assisting foreign business owners in Japan with accounting and tax matters. Also, not only in the tax and accounting field, our office can support your business in Japan in the fields of visa, registration, social insurance, and law by networking with specialists. Plus, we have networked with specialists in web marketing, building websites, and business consulting suitable for Japanese customers. All services are provided in English.
