1 Special provisions for taxation on Retirement income

Income percent of municipal tax pertaining to retirement allowances and prefectural tax are collected specially when receiving payments such as retirement allowances. The tax rate is uniform, 6% for municipal tax and 4% for prefectural tax (excess tax on personal prefectural tax does not apply).

Tax Calculation Flow

Calculation of tax calculation

(Note) Retirement income = (income from retirement allowance income deduction) x 1/2

※Please refer to "How to calculate retirement income deduction" for retirement income deduction.

If there is an insurance premium or contribution paid by the employee himself, such as a lump-sum payment for Retirement, which is paid in accordance with the defined benefit corporate pension agreement, the remaining amount after deducting the insurance premium or contribution paid by the employee from the amount paid shall be the amount of income from Retirement income.


In addition, since the above calculation method will be rounded in the middle of the calculation, when calculating the exact tax amount, please follow the following "Calculation method of tax amount (1,2,3)".

Calculation method of tax amount

(1) Calculate the retirement income deduction. (It is the same as the one used in the calculation of income tax.) (Income Tax Law 30(3) and (4))

※Please refer to "How to calculate retirement income deduction" for retirement income deduction.

(2) Retirement income amount. (It is the same as the one used in the calculation of income tax.) (Income Tax Law 30 (2), Local Tax Law 50 (3) (2), 328-2 (2))

Retirement income = (Amount of retirement allowance income -Retirement income deduction) x 1/2
※If the amount of Retirement income has a fraction of less than 1,000 yen, the amount less than 1,000 yen will be rounded down. (Local Tax Law 20-4-2 (1))
※When retirement allowances fall under “specified officer retirement allowances, etc.” (applicable after 2013)
 For retirement allowances for specified officers (such as retirement allowances paid by persons who have been with the company for 5 years or less, which are paid as retirement allowances corresponding to the length of service of the officers, etc.) The amount obtained by subtracting the retirement income deduction from the amount is the amount of Retirement income (the 1/2 calculation of the above formula does not apply.) 。
 “Educational years of service for officers” refers to the number of years of service during the period of service related to retirement allowance, etc. (If there is a fraction less than one year, the fraction is rounded up to one year) .
 "Executives, etc." refers to the persons listed in the following a to c.
B. Directors, Executive Officers, Accounting Advisors, Audit & Supervisory Board Members, Directors, Auditors and liquidators, and certain other persons engaged in the management of the corporation.

(C) In the case of disability Retirement Calculated by (b) +1 million yen

※If the length of service has a fraction of less than one year, round it up to one year.

Example of calculation

1. Retirement allowance income: 10.42 million yen, years of service: In the case of 20 years
