Review maximum donation

Donate up to the maximum amount to municipalities. Your net tax reduction equals the donation minus ¥2,000 self-burden. In exchange, you receive local specialty products (返礼品).

Suggerimenti

  • The return gifts (返礼品) must be worth at most 30% of the donation amount. Popular gifts include local meats, seafood, fruits and regional specialties.
  • Be careful not to exceed the deductible maximum. Donations above the limit are still charitable donations but you won't get the tax deduction for the excess.
  • Married couples can each donate to maximize the household benefit — each partner has their own donation limit based on their individual income.

What is furusato nozei (ふるさと納税)?

Furusato nozei (hometown tax donation) is a system allowing residents to donate part of their tax liability to any municipality in Japan. The donor receives local specialty products (返礼品 henreihin) worth approximately 30% of the donation, with an effective personal cost of only ¥2,000.

How does the ¥2,000 self-burden work?

Regardless of how much you donate, your effective out-of-pocket cost is exactly ¥2,000. All donations above ¥2,000 are deducted from your income tax and jumin-zei. The catch: if you exceed the income-based maximum, you lose the deduction for the excess.

What is the One-Stop Special System (ワンストップ特例)?

If you donate to 5 or fewer municipalities and do not file a tax return, you can use the one-stop special system to apply for jumin-zei deductions without filing. Otherwise, you must file a tax return to claim both income tax and jumin-zei deductions.

When must furusato nozei donations be made?

Donations must be made by December 31 of the target tax year. Processing can be done online through portals like Furusato Choice, Rakuten Furusato Nozei, or Satofull.
