Transfer Pricing Consulting Service

Japan's transfer pricing regulations put the onus on taxpayers to demonstrate that prices of all related party transactions are compliant with the arms length principle. Taxpayers should have transfer pricing policies and supporting documentation to reduce audit risk. The transfer pricing advisory team at Grant Thornton Taiyo ASG Tax Corporation includes experienced transfer pricing specialists, economists, and former NTA officials. As a member firm of Grant Thornton International, we work closely with specialists in member firms in over 100 countries around the world.
