Spot Consultation

My experience was outstanding from start to finish. The booking process was smooth and well-organized, with timely reminders, and the meeting itself was both professional and welcoming.

Kojima-san reviewed key areas including my resident status, various tax exposures, and the process for handling business expenses. His explanations were clear and thorough, and I felt an immediate sense of trust in his guidance—trust that was later reinforced by my own research.

By the end of our meeting, I felt genuinely relieved and confident in the path forward. I would highly recommend his services.

I want to thank Aki-san for all his help. Thanks to his advice and support, I proceeded smoothly from invoicing to tax filing. In particular, his support regarding implementing cloud accounting software was constructive. Aki-san’s explanations are clear, and he speaks English well, so I can confidently consult him. I highly recommend Aki-san as a tax advisor.

Aki-san was very helpful. He helped us assess our situation and formulate a plan going forward. He pointed out some extremely important and useful points that we were not aware of. He’s a friendly guy and speaks English quite well. I’m glad we had 90 minutes to consult, because there was a lot to talk about. I recommend his services to any expat looking for tax advice.

Clear Explanations and a Reassuring Consultation on Japan–Taiwan Tax Matters

As I live in Taiwan, I was unsure how to handle tax and filing matters involving both Japan and Taiwan. I decided to book a consultation because Mr. Kojima appeared to have strong expertise in international taxation.

His warm smile and gentle manner came through even over the screen. His explanations were clear and easy to understand, and I felt at ease throughout the consultation.

The explanation was very clear, and I was glad I could discuss the points I was concerned about. These days, it may seem easy to rely on what others say or simply search online, but rather than researching everything myself and risking making the wrong decision, I felt reassured being able to consult a professional for a spot consultation.

Tax Filing

Aki san was a great help to me. Filing RSUs (Restricted Stock Units) is very complicated; honestly, I had no idea how to handle it. I can’t thank Aki-San enough for his professionalism and kindness. I will continue to contact Aki san for tax advice in the future!

My previous tax accountant went out of business, and I was anxious to find a new one. Consulting with Aki was a relief—he was very kind and trustworthy. I thought obtaining invoices and handling other tasks would be difficult, but he explained everything clearly, making the tax process stress-free. I plan to continue entrusting my business to Aki in the future.

He listened carefully to everything I was concerned about regarding inheritance and explained it all in a way that was easy to understand. Even for matters beyond the inheritance tax itself, he looked into the details and offered helpful suggestions, which made a real difference. The whole process went smoothly, and I was able to leave everything in his hands with complete peace of mind. He was genuinely attentive throughout, and I’m truly glad I chose this office. Thank you very much.

Company employee, Japan, Inheritance Tax Filing

I knew nothing about inheritance and was anxious about the whole process, but he put together a clear, detailed summary of what to prepare and how things would proceed, which was a huge help. He even explained the smoothest way to get everything ready, which made dealing with government offices and banks much easier. Knowing I could reach out and talk things through whenever I needed also gave me real peace of mind.

Tax Education

In many tax education classes, students simply watch a video and finish the lesson. This time, however, they were able to think about improvements for their school through group work, and the children participated actively.
