We provide strong support to those starting a business in Japan.

To legally start a business in Japan, you must register your company with the appropriate authorities. However, differences in language and legal systems can make the process complex and difficult to navigate. At Nagatacho Judicial Scrivener Office, located in the heart of Tokyo’s business district (Chiyoda), we specialize in assisting international clients — both individuals and companies — with all procedures related to starting a business in Japan.

One-Stop Support for Setting Up a Company, Branch Office, or Appointing Directors in Japan

We provide complete support for the incorporation of Kabushiki Kaisha (KK) and Godo Kaisha (GK) — the two primary forms of Japanese corporations. We also assist with registering a branch office of your existing company in Japan. Additionally, we support the legal procedures required when non-Japanese nationals are appointed as directors of a Japanese company. All services are available fully online, allowing you to proceed smoothly from overseas.
