@jresummitclips: Ben Tanaka from RetireJapan explains an important tax rule for foreign residents during their first five years in Japan. Certain foreign source income, such as overseas rental income, capital gains, dividends, and interest, may not be subject to Japanese tax during this period if it is not remitted to Japan. But income earned from work performed while physically in Japan is generally considered Japanese source income, even if you are paid from overseas. Ben also explains why bringing foreign source income into Japan can change how it is taxed. Follow for more insights from The Japan Real Estate Summit, Spring 2026. Want the full discussion?
