About this member

The profession of certified public tax accountant was legalized in Japan in February 1942, when the Tax Practitioners Act was enacted. Nine years later, in 1951, this act was amended and transformed into the Certified Public Tax Accountant Law, which established the systematic foundation of tax professionals who provide taxpayers with expert assistance so that they will be in full tax compliance under the self-assessment scheme. In Japan’s taxation system, the self-assessment scheme is a main pillar and is applied to almost all national taxes. Under this scheme, taxpayers voluntarily compute their incomes and due amounts of taxes, file tax returns at tax offices to have their tax amounts officially finalized and pay due taxes thus determined.
