Local Pricing Notes
01
JCT (Consumption Tax) is 10%. Must be included in all quotes and invoices for JP billing.
02
JP enterprise buyers prefer annual contracts with quarterly or semi-annual invoicing — avoids frequent invoice processing.
03
Pricing in JPY is strongly preferred by JP enterprise. USD pricing signals foreign vendor status, which triggers extra procurement scrutiny.
04
JP SME (under ¥30K/month) will self-serve. JP enterprise (¥100K+/month) requires SI-mediated sales.
Willingness to Pay Assessment
JP enterprise WTP is high — comparable to US when the product is fully localised and trusted. Quality signals (documentation, onboarding, support) justify premium pricing.
