Social Security Processing

Social Security filing and processing in Japan is a vital component of the benefits an employee is entitled to and for companies, processing, filing and reporting in an accurate and timely manner is extremely crucial for employer and employee relationship.

QCIC’s social security team helps foreign companies comply with all requirements under the Social Insurance law. Half of the Social Insurance premium is paid by the company and the other half by the employee. Some companies pay this in full as a benefit. Companies in Japan must make sure to be compliant with the following areas:

  • Health Insurance: We help calculate the premiums based on the region of abode. Having health insurance means that currently 70% of medical fees are covered by insurance leaving just 30% for an individual to pay.
  • Nursing Care support: There is an additional insurance payment required from employees over the age of 40 to cover nursing support for those aged sixty-five and over.
  • Pension: Foreigners residing in Japan are by law required to contribute into the Japanese pension scheme. Pension payments can be received from age sixty-five, however, foreigners meeting certain conditions who have decided to relocate back to their home countries can apply for a lump sum payment. You can rely on us to appoint a Tax Agent to help you collect what is due you. Also, depending on one’s nationality, there are treaties between Japan and your home country where you may be allowed to contribute into your country’s social security system instead of Japan. Please enquire if you think you are covered by a Social Security Agreement between your home country and Japan.
  • Childcare: Japan also provides for benefits for childcare. This is borne entirely by the company.

QCIC’s team would be happy to help you do the above calculations and to file the required Social Insurance Annual reports.
