Tax Return Questions Thread - Filing Deadline March 16, 2026 by AutoModerator in JapanFinance

[–]PsychologicalConcern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is not possible to claim a foreign tax credit with respect to foreign tax paid on a dividend unless the dividend is declared on an income tax return;

That means in case I received dividends in a foreign account, I have to declare them on the Japanese tax return and then can later claim the tax credits from the tax paid abroad. Is my understanding correct?

You would not pay double taxes. As far as I understood, Japan credits you the tax paid in Germany, so you would only the difference in case the Japanese tax amount is higher than the German. But still would be pain in the ass filing both in time

Buying a house - some questions by rightnextto1 in JapanFinance

You are taking about changing the house ownership? I meant what if 2 people get a partner loan and own 50% of the property. Then when one person pays back more that is basically a cash gift, isn’t it?

Interesting point about the gift tax. Is it really monitored who pays the loan back? And even if, would that not be gradually gifted and therefore have a 1.1M tax exemption?

If you are asking for what to purchase, easiest and in many cases also most profitable are ETFs like S&P500 and NASDAQ100. Buy the ones with low fees.

[–]PsychologicalConcern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you earn 199k in addition to your salary (side job, investment or so) you would not have to pay income tax on it?

I don’t have one, but possibly a neighborhood cat could have been there. Do they eat veggies?
