General information, not tax advice

Furusato Guide explains how furusato nozei works for typical salaried workers in Japan. It is not written by your tax accountant and does not know your situation.

About the calculator

• It estimates your limit from the figures you enter, using the published formula and standard deductions.
• It estimates social insurance unless you enter the real amount.
• It does not account for housing-loan deductions, income other than salary, mid-year changes in residence status, or deductions you do not enter.
• Your municipality calculates the actual deduction. If its figure differs from ours, its figure is the one that applies.

About the guides

Rules are checked against the sources linked on each page, as of the review date shown there. Tax law changes, and municipalities differ in how they handle forms and gifts. Before acting on anything involving a large amount, or an unusual situation, confirm with your municipal tax office, the tax office, or a licensed tax accountant (税理士).

About gift examples

Donation amounts shown for gifts are typical ranges, not offers. Availability, amounts and shipping times are set by each municipality and change often. The portal’s own page is the authority.
