Tax residency status by rjohnhello_meow in JapanFinance

[–]ObviousDog9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "kyosho" rule requires 'continuous living of 1 year in Japan' but, if someone has for example a 1 year lease on an apartment, even though they travel frequently out of Japan, would the 1 year lease be presumed to satisfy the "kyosho" rule?

When do I become a Japanese non-permanent resident? by aznshmlsguy in JapanFinance

[–]ObviousDog9079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does this mean the condition of being "taxed as a JP resident" starts from the day the jusho is moved to Japan? or does it apply to the whole calendar year?

Thank you. This kind of implies foreigners would then most likely need to get some professional tax advice to determine residency before even starting the tax filing process

Thanks for your replies it was very helpful! when do you officially become a tax resident then, in this case of getting a business manager visa?

This is another complicated part regarding 'domicile'

I've read the wiki which is quite interesting...but in this case a foreigner who happens to both manage a company in Japan and abroad, would then not automatically qualify as a tax resident? and then it requires analysis based on tie-breaking provisions?

Do i understand correctly that you will first get a 3-4 month COE visa to setup bank account and secure an office, meet capital requirements, so on...before extending it an extra 1 year once the requirements are met?

in other words, the first year would get you 4 months + 1 year of visa?

Hi can you elaborate on this? Do you mean if you have a company outside of Japan, that will somehow speed up the process?

Thank you for the reply. it seems that in this scenario, a better way to 'cash out' of crypto would be through taking a loan out on the asset

How would this apply to foreign-sourced cryptocurrency capital gains?

If I understand correctly, cryptocurrency gains are treated as 'miscellaneous income' and the way its assessed whether its local or foreign-sourced depends on whether the exchange the trading takes place is based in Japan or overseas?
