The first difference in the tax of the stock investment is the account section instead of the stock selection.

The "withholding" of a specific account is a convenient option for beginners because the securities company replaces the tax calculation and tax payment significantly. On the other hand, if you want to use profits, losses, dividend deductions, foreign tax deductions, it may be more important to make a final declaration.

First Con まず

First of all, it is difficult to choose "withholding" of a specific account.

Simple. The securities company creates annual trading report on the sale and dividends of listed stocks, etc., and as a rule, the account with a collection of source tax will be charged to the account.

However, this doesn’t mean that you don’t have to make a final declaration. People who use multiple securities companies, people who want to carry out losses after the next year, people who want to optimize dividends and foreign tax deductions may have more residues than those who file.

Many people choose "withholding" because it is easy to reduce tax mistakes.

It is better to report even if there is a source collection

Here are three examples:

HomeReason for declaring
Profit by A Securities, Loss by B SecuritiesYou may be able to calculate profits and losses across your account
Annual loss leftIt is possible to carry over the transfer loss of listed shares for three years following the following year
Foreign Share idendsYou may be able to adjust double taxation with foreign tax deduction

It is convenient to have a tax account, but it does not automatically do everything until tax optimization.

It may be better not to申告

If you deem the profit of the account with a collection of source, the total income amount may be calculated.

Persons involved in dependents, use deductions, national health insurance premiums, local government benefits and burden judgments may have a different burden if they only see the refund.

It is important to see not only tax but also social insurance and dependent conditions together.

  • Beginners are easy to handle with specific account and withholding
  • Even if there is a source collection, the declaration is related to the profit and loss settlement and the transfer deduction
  • Normal account is heavy to calculate by yourself
  • Return申告ling also confirms impact on dependents and insurance premiums

Selecting an account can be seen as a geographical setting before starting investment. However, it is the basic that you want to understand first because it is directly connected to the tax and the rest of the hand.
