About a year ago, I noticed a significant opportunity for the JP company I was working for to save them money and produce new revenue.
I put together a business plan, contacted the relevant partners, and got agreements in place before proposing it to them.
They were elated and offered me a majority stake in a new company dedicated to handling this business as a show of good faith.
We're in the process of forming a K.K. (a requirement of theirs that I prefer not to get into at this moment) and a small thought has crossed my mind.
If I was doing this in the US, I think I would form an LLC to hold my shares and insulate myself a bit. I currently don't have PR and am on a specialist visa, but married to a Japanese national.
I know I'd need a spousal visa to start a holding company (or switch to a business manager visa).
So my question is two fold,
Assuming I could do this without issue, is it advisable to do something like this and are there actual benefits in Japan?
Would I run into issues if I retroactively did this at a later time? (created an LLC and sold or transferred my shares to this company)
