Local Tax Representative Support

For local taxes such as fixed asset tax, a local tax representative may be required when the property owner lives outside Japan or stays outside Japan for an extended period.

Local tax procedures vary by municipality and tax type. A local tax representative procedure may be separate from the national tax representative notification.

What We Can Support

From the local authority to your payment planning
1. Receive

Support agreed local representative procedures and receive specified fixed asset and city planning tax notices.

2. Explain

Record notice amounts and stated deadlines, explain key details in English and share payment information.

3. Act

You arrange the required tax funds before the stated deadline. We manage agreed notice correspondence with the local government.

Property acquisition tax notices may also be supported where applicable. Tax filings, calculations and substantive responses require a written scope.

For annual tax filing support related to rental income, see our Japanese income tax return page for non-resident rental income.

For a practical explanation of local tax notices for overseas owners, see Fixed Asset Tax Notices for Overseas Owners of Japanese Property. If a notice may be relevant to filing or sale support, see Documents Needed for Japanese Tax Filing by Non-Residents.

Need Help With Japanese Property Tax Notices?

Start with the Free Eligibility Check and share the property location. Once an engagement begins, we will provide a secure method for sharing a copy of the notice and other sensitive documents.

Fixed Asset Tax Notice Support is individually quoted according to the local government, properties, notices, and required procedures. It is not included in the standard national-tax fee. If you need national and local tax support together, we confirm the combined scope and total quote before work begins, avoiding duplicate charges for overlapping work. The initial scope check and quote are free. See our Fees page for details.
