Flat-amount Cut of Inhabitant Tax (Juminzei) for FY2024[令和６年度 個人町民税・県民税（住民税）の定額減税について］

In order to reduce the burden on residents whose wage increases have not kept pace with price hikes, and to achieve an economy inwhich wage increases are sustained well above price hikes, a Flat-amount Cut of Inhabitant Tax (Juminzei) will be implemented for
FY2024 as a temporary measure.
■ Eligible Person:
Taxpayers whose total income in the previous year was less than 18.05 million yen(equivalent to salary income of 20 million yen or less) are eligible for the tax reduction.
Those who are exempt from Inhabitant Tax (Juminzei ) for FY2024 or those who are taxed only on
the per capita income tax rate are not eligible for the Flat-amount Cut of Inhabitant Tax (Juminzei).
■ Possible Flat-amount Cut of Inhabitant Tax:
• The person himself/herself ・・・10,000 yen• Qualified spouse for deduction or dependent (excluding residents outside of Japan) ・・・10,000 yen per person■ Procedure of the Flat-amount Cut:
Those who are eligible for the Flat-amount Cut will each receive a tax reduction as indicated in the table below, depending on themethod of collection. The maximum deduction amount for "Hometown tax donation program (Furusato Nozei)" is calculated
based on the income limit before the Flat-amount Cut. In addition, the Flat-amount Cut will be made from the amount of income
after all tax deductions such as mortgage deduction and donation tax credit by Furusato Nozei.
Eligible Person

Method of Collection

Special tax collection from wages(payroll deductions)

No special collection will be made in June 2024, and the tax amount after the reduction
will be divided into 11 parts and collected from the payroll from July 2024 to May 2025.

General tax collection (payment slip,account transfer, etc.)

Taxes will be reduced from the first tax term, and if the tax amount cannot be fully
reduced, the tax amount will be reduced from the second and subsequent tax terms.

Persons in the second or later years ofspecial collection (pension withholding)from public pensions, etc.

The tax will be reduced from the amount of Inhabitant Tax collected from pensions paid
after October 2024. If the tax is not fully reduced, the tax will be reduced sequentiallyfrom December onward.

Persons in the first year of special
collection (pension withholding) frompublic pensions, etc.

Persons who will start a special pension collection beginning in FY2024 will receive a tax
reduction from the first period of regular collection, or from the second period if the tax
reduction is not complete.

■ Notes:• Tax reductions for spouses of those whose total inhabitant taxable income in FY2024 (entire CY2023) exceeds 10 million yen will
be deducted from the taxable income amount in FY2025.
• The amount of the Flat-amout Cut can be confirmed in the tax notice sent in May 2024 for those who have special collection fromtheir salaries (payroll deduction), and in June 2024 for those who have ordinary collection (individual payment) and special collection
from their pensions (pension withholding).

Tax per capita income amount for FY2024" (those who cannot reduce their taxable income by the full amount).
