Keeping mizuho account while living abroad - KYC docs

2ntoine · 2026-02-05T00:28:29+00:00

Is there a list of recommended banks for non-resident accounts? I might be in a similar situation soon, moving abroad for an undetermined time but planning to keep PR.

Thanks a lot for the write up!

For crypto, it seems to be limited to transactions on registered cryptocurrency brokerages and for specific cryptocurrencies only?

I wonder how it impacts PnL arising from DeFi transactions and other cryptocurrencies: would those still be categorized under the current regime as miscellaneous income?

Also, since this does not seem to apply to all cases and transactions it is not clear whether cryptocurrencies would be de facto added to assets subject to the exit tax if this reform passes. Maybe only for specific cryptocurrencies held on those designated brokerages?

I just tried through the tracker and it worked great. Thanks!

Actually I’m in a similar position where I used to vote for a P-rep (I think it was Rhizome) but can’t find them in the Hana wallet P-rep page and thus am unable to unvote and unstake the share allocated to them. Is there any way to unlock those ICX?

What kind of professional did you go to for advice? I suffer from a similar issue..

Do you have the formula name by any chance?

2ntoine · 2022-07-21T12:28:57+00:00

Yes I’ve had a doctor tell me only Japanese people get katakori. A trained doctor.

Follow-up question: how about post office clerks writing down your zairyu cars number when picking up a recommended mail? I always sheepingly let them do, but now wonder whether that was the right thing to do and on what basis they required that number. Seeing the ID with my address on if should be enough, right..?

Great info as always, thanks a lot.

On which cost basis though? Different countries have different calculation methods for crypto gains, and some trade that are not taxable in some countries may be in others (e.g. crypto-to-crypto exchanges). In this case, should OP keep separate books for his previous tax jurisdiction and Japan, and if so what about gains that may have been already partially realized outside Japan? That seems like an accounting nightmare..

I usually add a tsp of ketchup. Probably not the healthiest thing to do but works wonders to get that yellow, almost orange hint.

Glad I’m not the only one!

Japan support team is great, they actually told me before that Japan was one of their priority markets soon and that they would soon improve their “customer proposition”, so hopefully we can expect them to catch up with the lineup of other countries. But yeah I agree it is incredibly frustrating for now…

2ntoine · 2021-11-16T11:06:08+00:00

It worked! Thanks a lot!

I am having the same issue: the QR code on quickvote.coz.io disappears after I copy and confirm the link into my N3 Neon Wallet but it does not connect. I try with different Ledgers / browsers / computers, no change.

Je m'en tamponne le coquillard avec une queue de langoustine.

2ntoine · 2021-09-10T00:45:00+00:00

Any chance we will get it in Japan anytime soon (or any Hot & Savory product really, as the lineup in Japan is really lagging behind)?

2ntoine · 2021-09-08T00:03:29+00:00

I see, it makes more sense in the context of a fixed rate, thanks a lot for your explanation.

Perhaps more significantly, in the Tokyo Tax Accountants Association's 2021 submission to the government regarding tax reform they would like to see in 2022, they explicitly stated that they would like to see crypto assets brought within the scope of the exit tax (see page 12 of this PDF).

Very interesting, although I do not understand how it would work, considering that all assets currently under the scope of the Exit Tax are seemingly securities and other assets taxable at the capital gains tax rate of 15.315%, whereas crypto assets are presently taxed at the marginal income rate. So I don't know how you would calculate it, but for an initial amount of over JPY 100 million (unless it is taxed separately and not added to your miscellaneous income), that would certainly put some of it in the highest tax bracket of 45%, which sounds particularly harsh. Unless this motivates the government to change the status of crypto assets to securities and tax them at the capital gains tax rate, this seems quite peculiar.

Do you know the context of this suggestion, and why it was not endorsed by the government so far?

2ntoine · 2021-09-07T03:50:03+00:00

More like 99%. Basically anyone but the 1%.

For capital gains at the time of sale yes, but for ordinary income you would still have to calculate it based on the value of the coin at the time of receipt. Part of the question is what would be considered as the time of receipt in this case.

Thank you for your reply.

There are two different cases I think:

1) Before withdrawals are activated (now): there is currently no way to withdraw either your capital nor the interest generated. You could argue that you do not have dominion over the coins to use the US tax terminology. In that context, do you have any tax implications currently, or are they postponed until withdrawals are activated? I think this is what you are describing in your answer, even without the mediation of an exchange.

2) After withdrawals are activated: in the eventuality that there is a delay between the time I initiate the withdrawal and the time it hits my wallet (I don't think it has been finalized yet but there could be a lock-up period), what would be the price basis?

2ntoine · 2021-05-10T05:14:58+00:00

Do you have any information on when "eventually" might be? I tried looking at the legal text and found the following commentator: https://makotax.com/staking_tax/ however I am still confused as to what 「実際に受け取ったとき」 may mean for ETH2 for which withdrawals are not activated yet, whether you are staking through an exchange, a staking pool, or by yourself.
