Re: Reporting US investments to Japanese Tax Office

Also, while that's a stock/company, OP is talking about robinhood and vanguard. I'm guessing, but likely (mostly?) funds, and not individual stocks. Are there any ETFs or mutual funds where you can make that kind of selection? Not American so I have never looked into it in detail but my understandi...

Re: Reporting US investments to Japanese Tax Office

I'll stop in an the tax office next year and see what they say. And I may contact an accountant here that I know to see what he says. I'll keep you posted on that.

Re: Reporting US investments to Japanese Tax Office

If you are a tax resident (here for five years or longer), or if you bring any of the dividends/gains/distributions into japan in any year prior to that, then yes, you have to file a tax return and report your worldwide income.

Reporting US investments to Japanese Tax Office

Hi all, My US taxes are not a problem. I fill out the FEIC and also fill in the numbers for my dividends from Vanguard and Robinhood. My US taxes are fine. No problems filling those out. My question is this. I have one job in Japan. I get one tax form at the end of the year. Do I need to go to my lo...

Re: How to allocate
