Procedures for establishing a representative office
Attorneys-at-law, judicial scriveners and administrative scriveners (gyoseishoshi lawyers) are among the specialists who may be consulted on the establishment of branch offices and companies. These specialists can be asked to prepare various documents on a client’s behalf (e.g., documentation related to the establishment of Japanese branch offices and Japanese corporations, transfers of location, changes of executives, changes of business purposes, increases in capital, organizational changes, mergers, dissolution, etc.). Filing of commercial registration applications for submission to the Legal Affairs Bureau as attorney-in-fact is the exclusive province of judicial scriveners and attorneys-at-law.
Representative offices aimed at the collection and provision of information may be freely established without any registration requirements under the Companies Act; no notification need be provided to tax offices, as representative offices do not engage in business operations in Japan and thus are not subject to corporate tax. However, representative offices established by foreign banks, insurance companies, securities companies, or other financial institutions are exceptions; prior notification must be provided to the Financial Services Agency for such representative offices (as stipulated in the Banking Law, Securities Exchange Law and other laws).
A bank account opened by a representative office will ordinarily be registered jointly in the name of the office and an individual representative, as in "(name of representative), Japan Representative Office, (name of company)."
The documentation generally required for a representative office to open a bank account is as follows:
? Passport of representative
? Resident card of representative
? Company brochure
? Leasing agreement
? Bank seal
