Overview
Non-resident companies registered for JCT must appoint a Tax Agent to handle JCT filings and compliance with the Invoice System. The Tax Agent ensures adherence to the Invoice System and manages input tax credit claims.
Main Themes
Obligations of a JCT Agent: Submitting returns, paying taxes, receiving refunds, and responding to inquiries from the tax office.
Non-Resident Registration: Without appointing an agent, non-resident companies cannot register for JCT or issue Qualified Invoices.
Foreign businesses that need to issue qualified invoices should separately consider their JCT taxable status, Qualified Invoice Issuer registration and the appointment of a Japanese tax agent.

Differences from a General Tax Agent: A JCT Agent primarily handles JCT obligations; a separate agent may be required for other tax categories.
