Investing in Japan
Services
It is critically important that a client implements a business structure that makes sense from a commercial, financial and tax prespective.
Phase 1 – Design
In establishing a local presence in Japan, it is critically important that a client implements a business structure that makes sense from a commercial, financial and tax perspective. As part of Phase 1, we will "design" a recommended business and corporate structure by considering its form, functions and tax implications.
The deliverable from Phase 1 will be a memo which sets out (including the discussion with a client based on the memo):
- Recommended business entity and corporate structure a client may adopt.
- Advantages and disadvantages of operating through each of the business entities and corporate structures with focus on corporate and consumption tax implications.
- High level tax implication analysis with focus on:
- Capital policy from the client parent company to a local presence in Japan;
- Repatriating profits back to the client parent company; and
- Compliance requirements.
- Operational advice with focus on:
- Outline of requirements for incorporation, operating business and exit from Japan;
- Analysis of direct employment vs. independent contractor;
- Compensation and benefits and payroll structuring;
- General human capital management; and
- Social security requirements.
Phase 2 – Production and assembly
Once you have decided to establish a local presence and have determined which structure best suits your needs and requirements, we will assist with implementing the chosen structure. This can include:
- Assisting with the various registrations necessary when establishing a business in Japan, including details of all tax related registrations;
- Advising on the relevant compliance obligations; and
- Liaising with agents (i.e. registration lawyer, lawyer).
Grant Thornton’s International Tax professionals can help you implement strategies and structure transactions to enhance your tax savings at home and abroad. Whatever level of overseas activity you pursue, we can create a tailored international tax planning and compliance program.
