Amount of tax collected | One-fourth of the annual tax amount on miscellaneous income from public pensions, etc. | One-sixth of the annual tax amount on miscellaneous income such as public pensions |
Delivery date/collection month | April | June | August | October | December | February |

Collection method | Special collection from public pension (*provisional collection) | Special deduction from public pensions (main deduction) | ||||
Amount of tax collected | One-sixth of the annual tax amount related to miscellaneous income such as public pension in the previous year | (Amount obtained by subtracting the amount of tax collected up to August from the annual tax amount related to miscellaneous income such as public pension) |
For the calculation method of the provisional tax collection amount (tax collection amount for April, June, and August) , please refer to 2 of ``Total amount of income-based amount and per-capita amount for public pensions, etc. for the previous year (annual tax amount for pensions).''

year | Annual tax amount | Provisional tax collection amount | Main collected tax amount | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
April | June | August | October | December | February | ||
Year N | 54,000 yen | 15,000 yen | 15,000 yen | 15,000 yen | 3000 yen | 3000 yen | 3000 yen |
N+1 fiscal year | 90,000 yen | (a) 9000 yen | 9000 yen | 9000 yen | (b) 21,000 yen | 21,000 yen | 21,000 yen |
⇒54,000 yen (N year annual tax amount) ÷ 2 ÷ 3 = (A) 9,000 yen
⇒ 90,000 yen (N+1 annual tax amount) - (a) 9,000 yen x 3 = 63,000 yen ⇒ 63,000 yen ÷ 3 = (b) 21,000 yen
After special collection from public pensions has begun, if there is a change in the amount of tax, if you move to another city, ward, town or village, or if your pension payments are stopped, special collection may be discontinued and switched to ordinary collection.
The amount of personal residence tax from the month after the next month (next time) onwards, which is written in the "Pension Transfer Notification" sent by the Japan Pension Service at the time of pension payment, is provisionally the same amount as this month (this time).
Please be sure to check the correct amount on the "Municipal Tax/Metropolitan Resident Tax Payment Tax Amount Determination Notice" sent to you by the city.
