本節將介紹在日本開店的賣家需注意的關稅與稅率、違禁品和針對非日本居民的要求。
賣家有責任遵守日本所有海關法律法規,包括適用的關稅和稅收規定。進口到日本的所有商品都需要繳納進口消費稅。某些商品還需要繳納關稅。《海關關稅法》中的協調分類制度既規定了特定商品的分類,也規定了相應的關稅稅率。進口商品的應付消費稅金額的計算依據是,商品的海關完稅價值加上應付關稅以及其他適用的應付貨物稅。當酒類、煙草制品、石油和液化石油氣 (LPG) 等類別的商品進口到日本時,根據相關法律的規定,也可能需要針對其征收貨物稅。在此類情況下,應付稅款將根據進口商品的數量進行計算。

居住在日本境外(非日本居民),使用亞馬遜物流 (FBA) 的賣家,如果想要進口商品到亞馬遜的日本運營中心進行商品儲存或配送訂單,則必須首先向海關署長指定一名受托人(代表)/代理,允許這名代理代表賣家進口商品。上述流程須在進口商品之前完成。一般而言,任何一名日本居民都可以被指定為受托人或代理,且此人有責任完成進口報關流程,并代表非日本居民賣家繳納關稅和稅費。亞馬遜或其在日本的任何實體都不得作為報關單證上的海關登記進口商,只能由使用亞馬遜物流的賣家或其指定代理擔當。
賣家有責任遵守日本所有海關法律法規。
當您將貨物進口到日本時,需要遵守日本的所有海關法律法規。您無權以亞馬遜的名義進口,也無權在任何報關文件上將亞馬遜列為申報者、海關登記進口商或收貨人。

Japan Tax and Regulatory Considerations
Important: Information on this page does not constitute tax, legal, or other professional advice and must not be used as such. You should consult your professional advisers if you have any questions.
This section covers tariff and duty rates, prohibited goods, and non-residential requirements for sellers interested in selling in Japan.
Tariff and duty rates system
It is the seller's responsibility to comply with all Japanese customs laws and regulations, including applicable duty and tax requirements. Any goods imported into Japan are subject to the Import Consumption Tax. Some goods are subject to customs duties. The harmonized classification schedule in the Customs Tariff Law sets forth both the classification and the corresponding customs duty rate of particular products. The amount of consumption tax payable on imported goods is calculated on the basis of the customs value of the goods plus customs duty payable and, where applicable, other excise taxes payable. When certain kinds of goods, such as liquor, tobacco products, petroleum, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), are imported into Japan, excise taxes may also be imposed as stipulated in the respective law concerned. In these cases, the amount of taxes payable is calculated based on the quantities of the imported goods.

Prohibited goods
Japan strictly forbids the importation of certain goods. Please refer to Import Procedures for additional information.
Non-resident requirements
A Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) seller who lives outside of Japan (non-residents) and would like to import goods into an Amazon Japan fulfillment center for storage and order fulfillment must first designate a proxy (attorney) or agent to the Director-General of Customs, allowing the agent to import on the seller's behalf. This must be accomplished in advance of any importations. In general, any person who is a resident of Japan can be appointed as the proxy or agent, but this person is obliged to complete the import declarations and pay duties and taxes on behalf of the non-resident seller. Neither Amazon nor any of its entities in Japan may act as the importer of record on the customs declaration-only the FBA seller or their designated agent.
It is the seller's responsibility to comply with all Japan customs laws and regulations.
Customs
When you import goods into Japan, you must comply with all Japanese customs laws and regulations. You are not authorized to import goods in the name of Amazon or to show Amazon as the declarant, importer of record, or consignee on any customs documentation.
Visit Japan Customs for useful information regarding importing goods to Japan.
Note: The listed price of your products must include all applicable charges and taxes.
