Planning our move to Japan. Business requirements?

Hello, all.

My wife (from Ibaraki) and I are planning to move to Japan in the future after our second child is born. Here in the U.S. I have a small business selling car parts and I'd like to continue to have a business when I move to Japan. In California, we have to have a business license from the city to make sure I'm not interfering with zoning and to ensure I am getting taxed; and we have to get a wholesale or reseller's permit from the State to ensure that taxes are being paid on sales.

Can anyone advise what the… I guess… requirements are like for doing business in Japan? I am not asking for regional specifics, but is it something similar where you just file paperwork and make sure you're not doing anything out-of-zoning?

Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
