Disbursements such as registration and license tax, municipal fees, revenue stamps, and family-register retrieval costs are charged separately.

Where the treatment-improvement add-on splits: what this office (gyoseishoshi) handles is preparing the documents filed with the designating authority (the municipality)— the add-on structure notification, the plan, and the performance report. We do not handle the design of the wage system itself (work rules, wage regulations, career-path requirements) or the calculation of the wage-improvement amount. That is work for a licensed social insurance and labor consultant, and 四葉社会保険労務士事務所 takes it on under a separate contract. The two are separate businesses, so you contract with each of them separately. No referral fees are exchanged.

On the training-employment (ikusei-shuro) system, effective April 2027: preparing the permit application for a supervising and support organization is gyoseishoshi work, and this office handles it. The external auditor role can be filled by any of the qualifications the implementing regulation lists — attorney, licensed social insurance and labor consultant, or gyoseishoshi — so either this office or 四葉社会保険労務士事務所 can take it on. To preserve independence, however, we do not enter into a labor retainer with parties related to a supervising and support organization whose external auditor we serve as. This applies whichever of the two offices takes the role. The date on which permit applications begin to be accepted has not been announced. We accept inquiries in advance, before the system starts.

Incorporation and banking-support fees
ServiceUnitFee (consumption tax included)Main scopeExcluded / requiring confirmation
① K.K. incorporation supportPer case165,000 JPY (tax included)We clarify the business and governance structure, prepare articles of incorporation and organize supporting materials. Registration is entrusted directly to a judicial scrivener under a separate contract and invoice.Registration filing, statutory tax, notarization and other disbursements, judicial-scrivener fees, services ②–④
② Temporary receipt and administration of capitalPer case33,000 JPY (tax included)The bank has agreed to receipt into the dedicated client-funds account. Capital is received temporarily by bank transfer, with transaction records and receipt/handover reports. There is no fixed holding deadline; handover is normally envisaged within a few months. Eligibility for a third-party account, receipt authority and regulatory/registration treatment require individual checks.Capital itself and bank/remittance costs. If incorporation registration is refused, capital is returned; the JPY 33,000 custody/administration fee is non-refundable.
③ Corporate bank-account application supportPer bank88,000 JPY (tax included)For one applicant bank, we organize documents, business and transaction explanations, interviews and inquiry responses. The JPY 88,000 fee is payable even if the account is not opened and is non-refundable. Reapplication costs JPY 44,000. This is separate from incorporation support and does not guarantee opening or overseas receipts.Service ① and bank costs. No fee refund if the account is not opened. Reapplication: JPY 44,000.
④ Account-related clerical support after openingMonthly16,500 / 33,000 JPY (tax included)ATM procedures include bank transfers, account transfers and passbook updates, within delegated authority accepted by the bank, with records maintained. If the monthly maximum aggregate held balance is JPY 200,000,000 or less, the following month costs JPY 16,500; above that threshold it costs JPY 33,000.The monthly maximum aggregate held balance determines the following month’s fee. Exactly JPY 200 million falls in the JPY 16,500 tier. The engagement defines accounts/clients included, delegated powers and termination.

Service ① is the existing JPY 165,000 incorporation-document fee, not an additional charge. Services ① and ③ are separately priced. This table does not state total costs, a success fee or a full-refund promise. The estimate and engagement specify whether translation, authentication, postage and additional inquiries are included.

Each entity and professional is independent and contracts, invoices and receives payment directly from the client. Our office receives no referral fees. Registration is a separate engagement with a judicial scrivener; their fee is excluded from JPY 165,000.

Account opening, receipt of overseas funds and screening timelines depend on the bank; neither results nor completion dates are guaranteed. Incorporation alone does not grant Japanese residence status. This page provides general information; individual legal decisions require a qualified professional's review.

What are the fees for family trust agreement drafting support in Japan

四葉行政書士事務所 provides family/private trust agreement drafting support in Japan. We help organize your wishes and the assets to be placed in trust. Our fee is calculated separately for each agreement, based on the value of the assets covered by that agreement, with a minimum fee of JPY 330,000 including Japanese consumption tax. It includes preparing the draft agreement, ordinary revisions and coordination of the wording with the notary office.

Value of trust assets per agreementOur fee including Japanese consumption tax
JPY 100,000,000 or less1.1% of the value of trust assets, subject to a minimum of JPY 330,000
More than JPY 100,000,000JPY 1,100,000 plus 0.55% of the amount exceeding JPY 100,000,000

The rates above already include consumption tax. No further consumption tax is added to the result of this calculation. Notary fees, registration and license tax, other out-of-pocket expenses, and fees charged by other professionals are separate.

What does our fee include

  • Organizing your wishes and the assets to be placed in trust
  • Support in structuring the agreement within the scope of a Japanese administrative scrivener's document-drafting services
  • Preparing the draft trust agreement
  • Ordinary revisions within the scope stated in the quotation
  • Coordinating the draft wording with the notary office

These services are included in the fee above. We do not charge an additional agreement-drafting fee for the same work. The quotation will specify the scope of ordinary revisions and wording coordination. The notarial deed itself is prepared by the notary.

How are trust assets valued for the fee calculation

Asset typeValue used to calculate our fee
Real estateThe fixed asset tax assessed value for the latest fiscal year, multiplied by the ownership share actually placed in trust
MoneyThe amount actually placed in trust
Other assetsThe valuation method and the amount used will be presented in advance

When one agreement covers multiple assets, the values of the assets covered by that agreement are added together. For real estate, we use the Japanese fixed asset tax assessed value, which differs from market value and inheritance tax value. This valuation is used to calculate our fee; it is not a tax valuation.

What are some fee examples

Value of trust assets per agreementOur fee including consumption tax
JPY 25,000,000JPY 330,000, the minimum fee
JPY 30,000,000JPY 330,000
JPY 50,000,000JPY 550,000
JPY 100,000,000JPY 1,100,000
JPY 150,000,000JPY 1,375,000

These examples cover our fee only. Out-of-pocket expenses, fees charged by other professionals and separately quoted additional work are not included.

How are fees calculated for two separate agreements for spouses

If each spouse acts as the settlor under a separate trust agreement, we calculate the fee for each agreement using the assets covered by that agreement. The minimum fee applies to each agreement. We do not count the full value of the same property twice. Only the ownership share actually placed in trust under each agreement is counted.

Value of trust assets under each agreementFee per agreement including taxTotal for two agreements including tax
JPY 25,000,000 for each spouseJPY 330,000 eachJPY 660,000
JPY 50,000,000 for each spouseJPY 550,000 eachJPY 1,100,000

For example, if spouses each own one-half of a property with a fixed asset tax assessed value of JPY 50,000,000, and each places only their own share in trust under a separate agreement, JPY 25,000,000 is counted under each agreement.

What costs are charged separately

Substantive work, such as preparing documents for amendments, adding assets or ending the trust, is quoted separately in advance, with the scope of work and fee specified.

Appointment as trustee, trust supervisor or a similar role, custody of trust assets or funds, and ongoing asset-management services are not included in this agreement-drafting service.
