Roles on our board in Tokyo

Good to know

  • Social insurance comes first: health insurance, employees’ pension and employment insurance are about 14–15% of pay, and they lower your income tax. Your employer pays the same again.
  • Resident tax (about 10%) is charged on last year’s income, starting each June. In your first year in Japan you usually pay none, then it starts the next June. Use the switch above.
  • From age 40 to 64 you also pay long-term care insurance (0.81% of pay).
  • Pay is treated as 12 equal months. Japanese insurance uses rounded pay grades and many employers pay bonuses, so real amounts differ a little. Dependents, life insurance and other deductions are not included.
  • Income tax includes the 2.1% reconstruction surtax. From 2027 income it becomes 1.1% plus a new 1% defense tax.
  • Tax year. Income earned in 2026 (rates from April 2026).
