Tsuji Hongo Tax Corporation to Hold Book-Included Professional Seminar on Group Corporate Taxation and Reorganization Taxation

Tsuji Hongo Tax Corporation, headquartered in Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo and chaired by Saeko Kuwaki, will hold an online seminar titled “Professional Course with Book Included: Key Points of Group Corporate Taxation and Reorganization Taxation,” a two-part program starting Thursday, May 21, 2026. Group corporate taxation and reorganization taxation both cover broad areas and highly varied topics, making them difficult to master in full. In practice, however, professionals do not necessarily need to understand the entire system to respond effectively. The shortcut to practical application is to firmly grasp the key points of both tax systems through frequently encountered cases. The seminar will be led by the author of “Key Points of Group Corporate Taxation and Reorganization Taxation Learned from Consultation Cases Related to ‘Control Relationships Between Corporations’” (2nd edition). The instructor will explain in detail the points that should not be overlooked in practical work. The first session will cover “Overview and Cases in Group Corporate Taxation, Including Some Reorganization Taxation,” while the second will cover “Cases in Reorganization Taxation.” Seminar overview: Title: Professional Course with Book Included: Key Points of Group Corporate Taxation and Reorganization Taxation, Two-Part Series.
