About the Invoice in JPY
The yen has no decimal places, which sounds trivial until a template built for dollars produces ¥1,240.00 and a Japanese accounts department has to work out what the fractional yen is. Amounts here are whole yen throughout, rounded once at the end rather than line by line.
Consumption tax is 10%, with a reduced 8% rate for food and drink other than alcohol and dining out, and for newspapers on subscription. Since October 2023 Japan has run the qualified invoice system: a buyer can only claim the input credit if the invoice carries the seller’s registration number, the applicable rates, and the tax amount shown separately for each rate.
Payment is by furikomi, a bank transfer that needs the bank name, branch name, account type, account number and the account holder’s name — conventionally in katakana. The payer usually bears the transfer fee unless the invoice says otherwise, and saying otherwise is worth doing explicitly.
