Individual Enterprise Tax（Kojinno Jigyo Zei）【Abridged Version】
Contact Gunma-ken Isesaki Gyosei Kenzei Jimusho or the Gunma Prefectural Administrative Affairs and Tax Office, Isesaki for details on individual enterprise tax.
Individual Enterprise Tax or Kojinno Jigyo Zei
What is it?
Anyone who does business based in Gunma uses its public roads and facilities as well as services provided by the prefectural government. To this end, an individual enterprise tax (prefectural tax)
is levied based on the concept that part of the cost for the above-mentioned public services be borne by individual enterprises. (This is a different tax from the income tax you file with your local tax office.)
How much is it?
Here is the calculation formula.
Income (*1) －Deduction as a business owner (JPY2.9 Mil) *2) － Other deductions *3) ×Tax Rate＝Tax Amount
- (*1) Income = Revenue – Expenses (Same as calculating an income tax) However, special deduction for blue return to calculate income tax does not apply to this tax.
- (*2) In case the duration of your business is less than one year, the tax is calculated by the month.
(e.g. JPY1.45 Mil for six months of doing business) - (*3) You can claim deductions like carry-over of losses and capital loss of business assets, etc.
