consumption tax rates in Japan

10%standard
8%Reduced

The 8% rate covers food and non-alcoholic drinks (not eating in) and newspapers on subscription.

What changed in Japan in 2026

No change in 2026. The government has approved cutting the rate on food to 1% for two years from April 2027; the law has not yet passed.

Worked example

At 10%, a price of JP¥10,000 before consumption tax becomes JP¥11,000, of which JP¥1,000 is consumption tax.

The other way round, JP¥10,000 including consumption tax is JP¥9,091 before it — divide by 1.1 rather than taking 10% off, which is the usual mistake.

Charging Japan consumption tax in WooCommerce

Under WooCommerce → Settings → Tax → Standard rates, add a row with the country code JP and a rate of 10, leaving the state and postcode empty. Reduced rates go in their own tax class, each with a JP row, and the products that qualify are assigned to it.

If one product you sell is really two things taxed at different rates — a meal deal with food and drink in it, a gift box with a book — a single tax class cannot be right for it. SplitVAT divides that product's price across the tax classes you already have, so the order shows each part at its own rate. It is our plugin, and you only need it if your products are like that.

Where these rates come from

Rates checked on 30 October 2026. Two published rate tables were compared, and every rate they disagreed on — or that had changed since either was written — was checked against the tax authority or a tax adviser’s published guidance. Rates and the goods they apply to change; confirm with the national tax authority before you file.
