55.01 National Tax Agency Payment Calendars#

The National Tax Agency (国税庁, NTA) publishes annual guidance on income tax return deadlines, installment plans, and bank transfer cut-off dates. The filing calendars highlight how weekday shifts and national holidays change closing days for municipal tax processing and e-Tax submissions.

How to use this reference#

• Confirm the official due dates for the current fiscal year before scheduling conversations referenced in 41.06 Banking and Money Management.
• Cross-check unusual weekday or holiday adjustments when planning paperwork walkthroughs outlined in 21.05 Date and Calendar.
• Capture any municipal deviations in your local 41.02 Arrival and First Months checklist so the onboarding timeline stays aligned with city hall requirements.

Official resources#

• National Tax Agency — Filing and payment schedule (Japanese): Annual calendar covering return deadlines, payment slips, and downloadable forms.
• National Tax Agency English portal: Overview of filing categories, e-Tax basics, and helpline contacts for non-Japanese filers.

Notes#

• Filing calendars are typically released every December for the following spring cycle. Update this reference as soon as the new PDF or HTML schedule is posted.
• When the due date falls on a weekend or holiday, payment windows generally roll to the next business day; verify whether your municipality honors the same rule for resident tax at the counter.
