Meet the Principal

Yoshiaki Seki
Licensed Japanese Tax Accountant (Zeirishi)

I support international businesses with their tax, accounting and finance operations in Japan.

My work includes corporate tax and Japanese Consumption Tax (JCT), accounting and monthly closing, payroll, banking and payment operations, and reporting to overseas headquarters.

I communicate directly with clients in English and Japanese, including overseas CFOs, finance teams and accounting firms.

My focus is on providing practical explanations of Japanese requirements and helping clients understand how tax, accounting, payroll and payment matters affect their Japanese operations.

Our Approach

Direct Professional Involvement

Clients can discuss their Japanese tax and accounting matters directly with a licensed Japanese tax accountant in English.

As the principal of the practice, I remain directly involved in professional advice and client communication.

Coordinated Support

Accounting, tax, payroll, payments and financial reporting are closely connected.

By supporting these areas together, we help clients coordinate their Japanese finance operations and communicate with overseas headquarters through a single point of contact.

Support for Different Stages of Business

We work with both established Japanese operations and overseas companies that have Japanese tax obligations without maintaining a local subsidiary or office.

Our support is tailored to the client's activities, reporting requirements and the agreed scope of our engagement.

Tax Agent Services for Foreign Corporations

A particular area of our practice is Japanese Consumption Tax support for foreign corporations.

We act as a tax agent (tax representative) in Japan and assist with JCT registration, tax return preparation and filing, and tax payment arrangements.

This includes support for overseas businesses without a Japanese subsidiary or office.

Working With Overseas Professional Advisers

We also work with overseas accounting firms, CPA firms, tax advisers and VAT specialists on matters involving Japan.

Our role is to provide Japanese tax and accounting support while coordinating with the client's existing professional advisers and finance team.
