Seminar Overview
As companies increasingly decentralize and reorganize their bases, office relocation and expansion to regional areas are gaining attention from the perspectives of cost optimization, talent acquisition, and business continuity. However, initial investment and a lack of understanding of how to utilize available systems often pose hurdles to relocation and expansion.
In this seminar, a Cabinet Office official will speak and explain the "Regional Base Enhancement Tax System," which promotes corporate relocation and expansion to regional areas, covering its outline and key points for utilization.
This system provides corporate tax credits, etc., based on the acquisition cost of buildings for companies that establish bases such as offices, research institutes, or training centers in regional areas. A key feature is that for relocations from Tokyo's 23 wards to regional areas, companies can receive a 7% corporate tax credit or a 25% special depreciation on the acquisition cost of buildings, etc. (For relocations within regional areas or expansions without relocation, a 4% corporate tax credit or 15% special depreciation applies).

This seminar will provide an easy-to-understand introduction to the system's explanation and practical considerations.
