Pay date of bonus after leaving Japan

If I’m not mistaken, if the last salary paid by the company hits the employee’s bank account after they left Japan permanently, then non-resident income tax should be levied, even if the ‘work’ was performed while being a resident.

My question: is it also true for bonuses?

(Non-resident income tax is flat 20.42% instead of the normal progressive income tax. For large income it could be more beneficial to be taxed at the non-resident flat tax rate).
