Japan's voluntary tax system;

The literal meaning of the word "FurusatoNouzei" is to pay taxes to one's hometown. This is a voluntary tax payment system implemented in Japan since 2008, which allows people to pay taxes to local governments. Most taxpayers will choose their hometown, but there is no restriction on the cities or towns they like, and they can donate as much as they want. Taxpayers can enjoy tax refund and local governments can return local products.

Paying taxes is considered as a way for people to contribute to their hometown, even if they have moved to other places to work and live. Many Japanese were born and raised in the suburbs, where they received education and medical services provided by the local government. But when they leave home to study or work in big cities, their income tax will be paid directly to those city governments instead of returning to their hometown. Coupled with the decrease of suburban population, the tax gap has widened the distance between urban and rural development and financial resources.

With paying taxes, people can choose when and how much to donate to which unit. Judging from the income of this system, ideally, suburban and rural areas can get financial and development assistance with the help of people born and raised there.

Although the word "paying taxes" is used, this system is actually closer to "donating money" to local governments. Generally speaking, if you donate to the local government, you need to declare it in the annual income return, and part of the donation will offset your income tax and resident tax. However, paying taxes allows at least 2,000 yen or more to fully deduct the taxable amount, but this is still limited by your income level and family structure.

The Japanese government has taken some measures to encourage people to make contributions through this system. From April 20 15/day, the amount of tax refund that ordinary people can get has increased from 1 0% to 20%. In addition, if you donate to less than five local governments within one year, you don't need to submit an income tax return for each donation.

Although the tax system is mainly aimed at individuals, it does not restrict enterprises from doing so. However, in this case, the tax payment and treatment rules in its accounting records and the tax refund of local governments will be different from those of individual taxpayers.
