The services you need will vary depending on your company’s situation. For foreign companies, please see here.

Our Services	How we can help you
Corporate income tax return filing	All Japanese companies must file corporate tax returns every year. Foreign companies also do if they meet certain conditions. We will not only prepare and submit the tax return, but also make suggestions to minimize the tax amount and risk according to your situation, including the application of various tax preferential treatment.
Consumption tax return filing	In principle, all businesses other than those exempt from consumption tax must file annually. You can also choose to file monthly or quarterly instead of annually. Even if you are exempt from consumption tax return, there are cases where it is advantageous to choose to file one, and there are also options for the tax calculattion method. As such, when it comes to consumption tax, the various choices you make are just as important as filing the return itself. We will make the best suggestions to suit your situation.
Tax payment support	In Japan, there are several ways to pay taxes. For corporations, we recommend “direct payment,” which is the easiest payment method, and we will also support you in applying for it. However, for newly established corporations and foreign corporations that do not have a Japanese bank account, we will provide the most appropriate tax payment support for each case.
Accounting bookkeeping	Tax returns are prepared based on accounting books. Of course, they also serve as the basis for important management decisions. Therefore, preparing accurate accounting books is extremely important. We provide bookkeeping services with an eye toward preparing tax returns and contributing to management decision-making.
Monthly advisory	Even if you have your own bookkeeper, during your daily bookkeeping tasks, you may want to consult with someone about accounting or taxes or check the results of your bookkeeping. In such cases, we recommend a monthly advisory contract. We will be a partner who understands your business, at a more reasonable rate than hourly charges.
Payroll	If a company pays salaries to its directors and employees, it needs to calculate withholding tax and social insurance every month. It also needs to settle withholding tax at the end of the year and handle various procedures associated with employees joining and leaving the company. You can leave all of this to us.
Reporting package	There are many cases where you need to package and report monthly financial statements and their details to a parent company overseas. In such cases, we will create your consolidated package in the format specified by the parent company, adjusting and reclassifying accounting standards if necessary.

When we provide these services, the amount of work required varies greatly depending on the situation of each client, so we provide custom-made fee estimates.

How do we determine service fees? What are the parameters?

Sales scale

Generally, the larger the sales scale, the more transactions there are, and the higher the probability of complex accounting and tax issues arising. That’s why most accounting firms, including ours, charge different rates depending on the client’s sales amount.

Your type of business

The fee will vary depending on your industry, the complexity of the transaction, etc. For example, the following companies are likely to be charged additional fees.

• Many transactions involve buying and selling fixed assets, including real estate.
• Many import and export transactions.

Tax status

Even if two companies are in the same industry and have similar sales volumes, for example, the amount of effort required for accounting bookkeepings and tax return filings will differ depending on whether they adopt standard or simplified consumption tax.

Service mix

Each service is organically integrated. For example, when looking at the preparation of tax returns, the amount of effort required to prepare a tax return is completely different for clients who use our bookkeeping services and those who do not. This is because monthly bookkeeping services allow us to understand the company’s transactions in advance, but if we do not keep your books, we will have to start by reviewing your books. Therefore, if you use multiple types of services together, the unit price of each service will be lower.

During this process, if it is difficult to give you a fixed-price quote smoothly, such as if the situation is complex and it will take time to confirm your tax status, or if your business plan is uncertain and you would like us to do a tax simulation, we may recommend a paid consultation first.

Once we have prepared a quote and you have agreed, we will prepare a contract, which both parties will sign electronically to begin work. Since there is no need to stamp paper, the contract procedure is very smooth.
