I'm trying to understand how freelancers in Japan deal with taxes.
From what I learned so far:
– Blue Return seems complicated
– e-Tax is mostly in Japanese
– many people end up hiring tax accountants
But that can cost ¥80,000–¥200,000 per year.
For people here doing freelance or remote work:
How are you currently handling taxes?
• Doing it yourself?
• Using freee / Money Forward?
• Hiring a tax accountant?
Curious what the typical setup is.
Also: If there was a simple English tool that guided you through the entire process
(Blue Return, expenses, tax calculation) would you use something like that?
