Becoming a tax resident in Japan: good to know
What we are developing in this post is good to know before deciding to elect tax residence in Japan.
Any foreigner living in the land of the rising sun always has a status: resident or non-resident. In both cases, it is imposed.
A Japanese resident is defined as a natural person who has a residence in the country or is domiciled in the country for at least one year. Those who do not fit these criteria are considered non-residents.
A Japanese tax resident may or may not be permanent. If he permanently resides in Japan for tax purposes, he is taxed on all of his income, regardless of where it comes from. A non-permanent resident, on the other hand, is not taxed on his income from a foreign source, as long as this income is not collected in the territory. A non-permanent resident is not of Japanese nationality. It is possible to remain a non-permanent tax resident by having a domicile in the territory and staying there for 5 years over a period of 10 years.
Besides taxation, let's talk about psychological preparation. This is essential before immigrating to Japan. Notice to foreigners who easily get carried away: the Japanese, very strong in self-control, ban this kind of behavior. Don't be surprised if they still consider you a "gaijin" (literal translation: foreigner) as long as you reside in Japan. However, don't take it badly that they see you as a stranger because they are respectful all the same. Be yourself in the land of the rising sun. Do not try to be like them because they want to preserve the authenticity of their culture. According to them, their culture belongs to them and to them alone.
Today, the Japanese population is decreasing. We try to encourage immigration, but the realization of such a project is still under study. Log in to FIDULINK ! Join the network and you'll be up to date. In addition, you will be up to date on all areas, especially regarding your investments.
