Japan Tax Agent and Qualified Invoice Registration

Step 1 of 4: Service and your details

Your order

USD 2,000one time, per company

Appointment of Aplash as your Japan tax agent for national tax matters, and filing of your Qualified Invoice Issuer registration with the National Tax Agency, so your Japanese business customers can claim input tax credit on what they buy from you.

Open to companies supplying goods or services taxable in Japan. A business required to appoint a tax agent has to have one on file, and this order is where that appointment is made.

Billed separately at cost

  • Japan Consumption Tax itself, and any tax payable, are settled by you and are outside this order.
  • Consumption tax return filing and election advice are performed by a licensed tax accountant and are billed separately at cost. Aplash sets up and holds the tax agent role; it does not file your returns.

The registration takes effect when the tax office records it and issues your registration number. Timing is set by the tax office and is case-specific.

What this covers
  • Confirmation from your documents that the registration route is open to you
  • Preparation and filing of the tax agent notification naming Aplash as your Japan representative for national tax matters
  • Preparation and filing of the Qualified Invoice Issuer registration application
  • Your registration number returned to you once the tax office issues it
  • Review of your invoice layout against what a qualified invoice has to carry
