I'm currently transitioning from closing my French company to establishing a new one in Japan and need expert advice on France-Japan tax treaty implications.
I have a situation where before closing my business in France in the coming weeks, I could invoice some services from that company, or I could wait a bit later and invoice it from my future 個人事業 in Japan. I'm trying to find out which scenario will have the biggest impact on my overall taxation next year.
(Without going into details, my situation is such that the exact timing of my tax residency change isn't clear to either tax administration. I'm not trying to circumvent any laws, but to optimize my tax situation while ensuring proper compliance given this ambiguous timing.)
I'm in discussions with accounting firms, but there are too many operational topics to cover before signing contracts, so I can't dive into this specific tax question with them yet.
Does anyone have recommendations for tax specialists experienced with France-Japan double taxation agreements?
