Annual amounts

Use the income amount shown in your tax filing. For service fees, royalties and author fees use the amount after statutory expense adjustments. Include only eligible deductions and donations.

Example: ¥180,000 income less ¥60,000 basic allowance and ¥36,000 deductions leaves ¥84,000 taxable. At 10% less ¥2,520, tax is ¥5,880. With ¥6,000 prepaid the estimated refund is ¥120.
