I’m a musician planning to operate as a small business with a few regular local gigs, a yearly revenue well under the ¥10mil threshold (probably around ¥1mil). My understanding is that I am not a taxable person (in regards to Consumption Tax)
So for example, if I invoice ¥20,000 for a performance, then I get to keep all of that; and only pay the associated income tax at the end of the year. (Note: as miscellaneous income, I’m not planning to register as Sole Proprietor)
Should anything else appear on my contracts/invoices? Or does GST get added only when I am liable to pay it after crossing the 10mil threshold?
I’ve been reading the NTA english page at [https://www.nta.go.jp/english/taxes/consumption\_tax/01.htm](https://www.nta.go.jp/english/taxes/consumption_tax/01.htm) and trying to understand my position.
Cheers

Forgot to mention: this is a secondary source of income. I am employed as a ski instructor for my primary work.
