在日本做一点 AdSense 副收入,要不要確定申告?住民税和签证更新会不会麻烦?

最近我想清楚了一个问题: 如果人在日本工作,主业是公司工资,同时自己做 YouTube、博客、AdSense 之类的副收入,那么这笔钱到底要怎么处理? 尤其是金额不大的时候,比如每个月 8,000 日元左右。 说多不多,说少也不是完全没有。问题就来了: 这要不要確定申告? 住民税是不是也一起申告了? 公司帮我办签证更新时,会不会因为这个副业变麻烦? 这篇就按一个普通在日上班族的视角,把这个问题整理一下。 一、確定申告和住民税,不是两件完全分开的事 很多人一开始会以为: 確定申告是所得税,住民税是另一套,所以要分别报两次。 其实不是完全这样。 原则上,如果你做了所得税的確定申告,申告资料会从税务署传送给地方自治体。也就是说,市区町村会根据你的確定申告内容来计算住民税。国税厅也明确说明,提交所得税等的確定申告后,申告书资料会以数据形式送到地方公共团体,因此通常不需要再另外提交住民税申告书。( 国税厅 ) 所以可以粗暴理解为: 做了確定申告,并且把副业所得写进去,就等于住民税方面也有资料了。 不过要注意,这里说的是“申告资料一起过去”,不是“税一起交完”。 所得税是向国税交。 住民税是之后由你住民票所在地的市区町村计算,再通知你缴纳。 二、住民税是怎么交的? 如果你是普通上班族,本职工资对应的住民税通常是公司从工资里天引き,也就是「特別徴収」。 但副业部分,比如 AdSense、YouTube 广告收入、个人网站收入,如果你不希望它混进公司工资天引き里,可以在確定申告时选择: 給与、公的年金等以外の所得に係る住民税の徴収方法 自分で納付 意思就是: 工资以外的所得对应的住民税,由我自己交。 这样之后市区町村通常会给你寄纳付书。 你可以拿着纳付书去便利店交,也可以用手机支付、地方税お支払サイト、银行窗口等方式缴纳。简单说,就是收到单子后自己交。 这里最重要的是: 「自分で納付」不是逃税,而是选择副业部分住民税的缴纳方式。 三、20 万日元以下是不是不用管? 这是最容易误解的地方。 日本常说: 上班族副业所得 20 万日元以下,可以不用確定申告。 这个说法只说对了一半。 更准确地说,是: 一处工资收入者,工资和退职所得以外的所得合计超过 20 万日元时,通常需要做所得税的確定申告。 国税厅的副业確定申告资料中也提到,副业等所得超过 20 万日元时,需要確定申告。( 国税厅 )...

What is "住民票"? - About "residence certificate" in details

Q&A Q: What is " 住民票 " in Japan? A: " 住民票 " means the  certificate of residence . It records the citizen's whereabouts and residence changes, which should be registered 14 days before or after moving into the new address. In principle, " 住民票 " is written according to the registration items on the  residence card .

We also called the copied paper " 住民票 "; Q: Why do you need it? A: Suppose you are doing significant business in Japan, such as taking a driver's license test, taking a job, or changing careers.

Guide "to" VS. "on" VS. "for", which is correct?

In general, guides are "to" whatever they describe , whether this is an action or a thing:  A guide to living in Japan A guide to the City of Tokyo A guide to 21st-century Performance art​ However, the form that the guide is published in , whether it is a book, a web page, an article, or anything else, would usually use "on":  An essay on the City of Kanagawa A book on building your own nuclear weapons A web page on 21st-century Performance artists "For" is used to say who the guide is aimed at , not what it describes:  A guide for juveniles A guide for car owners​  A guide for Single Moms I would be a little surprised to see something like "A guide for building your own space rocket," where "for" indicates purpose, and "A guide for seventeenth-century Flemish art" would be wrong. Yes, the preposition after "guide" must be followed by a specific purpose if you want to use "for," so I still recommend you to ...

The most challenging part of Japanese: VOLITIONAL VERBS 意志動詞 VS. NON-VOLITIONAL VERBS 無意志動詞

Note: Japanese Volitional verbs should be distinguished from verbs' volitional forms . Before reading, please check this if you don't know what 他動詞 and 自動詞 are: https://www.livinginjapanasaforeigner.com/2022/08/the-confusing-part-of-japanese.html In conclusion: Transitive verbs  are volitional  verbs, and non-volitional verbs are  Intransitive verbs . 他動詞⇒意志動詞 無意志動詞⇒自動詞 Details  Difference between volitional verbs and non-volitional verbs Words without potential form  all use the form of "ない" to directly indicate "cannot." Words with potential forms  are just like common words; they use the potential form's "ない" form to mean cannot. These two kinds of words are not  Transitive verbs  or  Intransitive verbs . (to be exact, it is the difference between volitional verbs and non-volitional verbs ) For example: 「届ける」VS.「届く」 "届ける" refer to someone delivering something. (With people's participation) "届く" refers to those that c...

How can I write a letter in Japanese? Description of the writing format of Japanese letters.

Introduction In Japan, although the writing method of personal letters is free, there are specific format requirements when writing formal letters . Writing a letter according to the format is also to express your respect and sincerity to the other party. In order not to let your letter make the other party feel impolite, let's learn the writing format of Japanese letters ~ During the period of daily Japanese language development, the use of the expressive association is called "「頭語(とうご)」" (literally, ' head language '), "「拝啓(はいけい)」," and "「謹啓(きんけい)」." A greeting about climate or season will be added after head language , which can make the other party read the letter comfortably. In general, the head language will use "「拝啓(はいけい)」," and the corresponding peroration  is "「敬具(けいぐ)」." If you want to be more polite, for example, when writing some work letters, you will use "「謹啓(きんけい)」," and the corresponding conclusio...

Matcha Almond Pudding with Green Tea Sauce

Matcha Almond Pudding without Green Tea Sauce This is just the original appearance on the table. 1 You can see that this is a bit light green pudding-like Tofu. To be honest, I have forgotten whether Tofu is sweet, but I clearly remember that Tofu is very tender. 2 The wolfberry on it is sweeter than Tofu. 3 But I wonder how this shape is made. And because it is a bean product, why is its taste infinitely close to pudding? This is really amazing! Matcha Almond Pudding with Green Tea Sauce I poured Matcha sauce on the Tofu, and it looked more beautiful. 4 Wow, the fifth picture is the best shooting angle, I think. 5 The overhead angle looks good but is slightly smaller than the whole picture. 6 Moreover, Matcha sauce tastes lovely, and its sweetness is close to condensed milk.

Blogger custom domain redirection not working? Maybe you missed something. - About Cloudflare DNS Settings

This case will show you how to resolve DNS on Cloudflare about Blogger. Since you found this, your problem may be that the "domain.com" cannot be redirected to the subdomain of "www.domain.com." Generally, we choose URL redirecting rather than directly resolving "domain.com." Especially Blogger even has a switch to redirect directly. First, please check whether there are two records in the DNS settings of Cloudflare. These two records are the two CNAME records Blogger asked you to add at the beginning.  One is the CNAME defined by Blogger for verification purposes, and the other is a URL corresponding to your "www." They may look like these: Name: gvblqrscfa24t    Content: gv-mapcmu4pcr2d4z.dv.googlehosted.com Name: www      Content: ghs.google.com Please be careful; it's not "ghs.googlehosted.com," "let alone "ghs.googlehost.com.""I just didn't input it correctly. So I tried many methods. And they must be ...

The Ultimate Guide To Ichiran Ramen: A Delicious and Unique Dining Experience

Introduction If you are new to Japan, Ichiran Ramen will be a good choice for you. Ichiran Ramen is very particular. For example, they require freshly cooked Ramen to be brought to the guests within 15 seconds. Their secret spicy sauce is said to be a mixture of more than 30 ingredients, so I generally recommend twice the spicy degree when ordering. And according to the general rules, they will ask you whether you want garlic or onions or not.  The most important thing they will ask is the hardness of the noodles. There are about five kinds of surface hardness: Extra firm , firm , medium , soft , very soft . I recommend  firm  Ramen, even though they recommend  medium . The color represents the softness and hardness of the Ramen. The waiter will give you a small plate, and its color is what I show now. The Kae-Dama metal plate So, let's go for steps.  Steps of eating Ramen in Ichiran Step1 Like other Japanese restaurants, Ichran uses vending machines to se...
