Hi, I am planning to live in Japan for a year during 2025 with my Japanese partner. However I am struggling to find accurate information on the taxation requirements for my situation. Both the Japanese consulate in Sydney and the Tokyo Australian embassy were not helpful. Hoping some one here can give some advice or point me in the right direction of who to talk to.
My partner is a Japanese citizen and I am planning to work remotely as my current job allows this. My current plan was to use the digital nomad visa for the first 6 months, then apply for a 6 months partner visa for the remainder of the year. When I spoke to my hr department they believed I could work 6 months in Japan without having to pay Japanese taxes. But they were unsure if that included the nomad visa or not. Does the Australia/Japan tax agreement count for resident visas like the partner visa? Or would I need to start paying taxes in both Aus and Japan after the Nomad Visa Expires?
