Summary

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) has opened a call for public comments on a draft notification (kokuji) partially amending the standards needed to ensure the safety and reliability of the use of information and communications technology, as prescribed in several provisions of the Enforcement Regulation of the Local Tax Act (including Articles 3-3-2(3), 5-2(3), 10(5), 10-2-8(3), and 24-39(1)). This is a draft out for public comment and is not stated to be finalized or in force. The official Japanese source is authoritative; this is an unofficial English summary.

Business Impact

Organizations that handle local tax procedures electronically may be affected if the standards for ICT safety and reliability are changed, and could wish to monitor the outcome.

Recommended Action

Consider reviewing the official MIC source to confirm the scope, requirements, and public comment period before drawing any conclusions.
