Before You Start
01 | Information to Prepare for Your Consultation
To help us understand your company formation needs more accurately, please prepare the following information for your initial consultation:
Your main planned business activities in Japan
Whether you would like to establish a Kabushiki Kaisha (KK) or Godo Kaisha (GK); if you have not decided, we can discuss this during the consultation
Whether the company will be owned by individuals or a corporate shareholder
Your proposed shareholders, directors and company representatives
Your preferred city and office requirements
Your planned capital contribution and start date
Whether you also need assistance with banking, visas, tax and accounting, office arrangements or other matters
02 | Our Scope of Services
We provide company formation and business establishment support tailored to each client's needs.
We can assist with:
Formation planning; choosing between a KK and GK; discussing ownership structure; organizing business objectives; coordinating registered address and office arrangements; preparing incorporation documents; coordinating the application process; and connecting clients with support for banking, tax and accounting, visas and operations after incorporation.
Coordination with qualified professionals:
For matters that legally require handling or confirmation by professionals such as judicial scriveners, administrative scriveners, tax accountants or accountants, an online or in-person meeting with the relevant professional may be arranged before engagement, depending on the project.
Services arranged separately:
Follow-up services such as bank account opening, visa applications, permits, tax and accounting, office leasing and company amendments are subject to a separately confirmed scope based on your needs.
03 | Fees and Process Details
Service fees
Fees are quoted individually according to the company type, ownership structure, business activities and required scope of support.
Before work begins, we will confirm the agreed services and corresponding fees.
Depending on the project, a quotation may cover:
Formation planning | Document preparation support | Registration process coordination | Professional introductions | Progress follow-up | Guidance on post-incorporation matters
If you also require assistance with banking, visas, tax and accounting, permits, offices or other services, these will be confirmed separately for your project.
