I currently hold US citizenship. To take care of my parents at home, I am an employee of an American company, but I am planning to move to Japan in the next year or so to work remotely for a few years.
So I have a few questions and would appreciate it if anyone knows anything about this. First, I am planning to cancel my health insurance through my company. ?

Is the income for joining the Japanese National Health Insurance based on the calculation that I have no income in Japan? ? If I use my income in the U.S. as a guide, the premiums may be high.

If anyone is familiar with this situation and would be willing to share links to information, I would appreciate it.

If you don't have any income in the US, you don't need to apply for a tax return in the US
No wonder you're such an adult!

I am in a similar situation, based in Japan. I am staying in Japan with residency status.

As others have said, Non Resident is not subject to the penalty for not having health insurance.


National Health Insurance premiums are determined by your income in Japan in the previous year.
We also report zero income in Japan because our income is derived from a U.S. corporation that we operate ourselves. The annual premium is 15,000 yen.
I put that in the remarks column on my Japanese tax return, and I am prepared to submit my U.S. tax return whenever there are instructions to do so, but so far I have not received any requests to do so.

How do you live?

# Unless your salary is deposited in a Japanese bank and the government knows about it, it is treated as no income.
You are trying to evade taxes.

15 I only wrote the facts.

It's not up to the person who wrote it to decide if it's fact or not.
Only the person who reads it decides whether it is fact or not.

16 If a US citizen lives in Japan and files a tax return in Japan,
he is not obliged to file US taxes.

Americans are not exempt from filing taxes anywhere in the world.
