I aim to assist non-Japanese business owners who struggle with reading or writing in Japanese. If you find the Japanese tax return system challenging, I can help you with your tax filings.

Some New Tax Accountants May Change The Way They Handle Accounts And Tax Transactions
If a tax accountant is replaced, some of them handle accounts and tax transactions differently from before. If the continuity of financial statements over several years, such as rapid increases or decreases in sales and profit or inventories, collapses, the likelihood of tax audits increases. In this sense, depending on the practices of the new tax accountant, it can be said that changing a tax accountant could lead to increased chances of tax audits.
The Tax Office Does Not Consider Changing A Tax Accountant as A Trigger for Conducting Tax Audits
On the other hand, among the considerations for selecting targets of tax audits, a change in tax accountants is not included. Therefore, merely changing a tax accountant does not increase the likelihood of undergoing tax audits.
