I was just reading a crazy amendment. THERE IS NO GIFT TAX IF A TABLE 1 HOLDER RECEIVES MONEY FROM AN INDIVIDUAL OVERSEAS?
So literally a family member can send an 10-20M yen without any taxes imposed on you?
It seems only Table 2 folks have to follow the sliding tax scale. I think most people in a work visa would be considered Table 1 (even if they are a permanent tax resident)
