Hi, 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.
If you are unclear about borrowing business funds in Japan, you might find this blog helpful.
Though there are hurdles, foreigners can indeed borrow business funds in Japan.
Japan Finance Corporation
The Japan Finance Corporation is a Japanese national organization, therefore it’s easier to borrow from compared to private banks. However, you should pay attention to the following.
・Repayment Within The Residency Period
If you’re staying with a management visa, you need to repay within your residency period.
・Creating A Business Plan In Japanese
A business plan in Japanese is required when applying for a loan.
Private Banks
Borrowing business funds from private banks can be challenging for foreigners unless you can demonstrate stable roots in Japan, such as having Japanese nationality.
