Key points for establishing a branch office in Japan

One way for overseas corporations to conduct business activities in Japan is to establish a Japanese branch office.

It becomes a branch attached to a corporation in its home country, which is the head office, and as a general rule, profits are taxed on income generated within Japan.

Legally, it is called a "sales office," but the name does not necessarily have to be "sales office," and you can choose any name you want, such as "branch office," "branch office," or "Japan office."
