How tax works in Japan

Asia & Pacific · JPY

Japan combines a seven-band national income tax with a flat 10% local inhabitant tax and roughly 15% social insurance (health, pension, employment). The system is automatically deducted via the year-end adjustment (nenmatsu chōsei), so most employees never file a return.
