Business Permit and Subsidy Application Support Fees
Understand the scope and cost of support before engaging us.
日本語“+” means the fee starts at the stated amount and increases with the procedure, number of premises, available records and agreed scope. Government fees and expenses are separate. An inquiry alone does not incur a fee. If a paid consultation or detailed document review is needed, we explain the scope and cost and obtain your agreement before starting.

We do not offer support for every subsidy programme. Where confirmation by an accredited support institution or another participant is required, we check the necessary involvement and available arrangements before accepting the matter.
The listed subsidy application preparation fees are fixed-fee starting amounts, not merely retainers. No separate success fee applies under this standard plan. Fees pay for the agreed work and are payable regardless of selection; settlement on early termination is explained in the contract. Pre-application work and post-selection procedures are separate engagements.
Terms explained before a subsidy engagement
- Upfront and fixed fees and the work covered
- The total fixed fee, payment milestones and any additional work charges
- Settlement and refund terms for unsuccessful applications, withdrawal or early termination
- Whether post-selection procedures and reports are included and any additional fees
Selection, formal grant approval and payment of funds are separate milestones; the contract specifies the applicable fee conditions. We do not guarantee selection, approval, funding or completion by a desired date.
Included work and separate expenses
The quotation identifies the professional fee inclusive of applicable consumption tax and the tasks, number of attendances or responses, and scope covered. Government fees, certificates, postage, travel, translation and other professionals’ fees are separate unless expressly included.
If site visits, additional offices or application categories, extensive document organisation, further research or correction work beyond the agreed scope become necessary, we explain the additional work and cost and obtain agreement before proceeding.
Payment and engagement
- Tell us the business type, location, procedure and intended timing.
- We assess whether we can accept the matter and provide the scope, tax-inclusive professional fee, expenses and payment terms in a quotation or engagement documents.
- Work starts after agreement and engagement. For fixed fees, the general arrangement is 50% upfront and the balance upon approval or before delivery, with the specific timing set out in the contract. For subsidy preparation support, the balance is due before delivery of the agreed preparation work, rather than when subsidy funds are received.
Prices shown are minimum professional fees including consumption tax. For Stripe online payments, our online payment fee of 5% is added to the amount payable, including any government fees and expenses being collected. No such fee is charged for payment by bank transfer to our designated GMO account; bank transfer charges are borne by the client. The full total is confirmed before payment. See our payment methods. No payment is required merely to make an inquiry.
These fees apply to new quotations issued after publication on September 20, 2026. They do not retrospectively change existing quotations, confirmed bookings or ongoing engagements.
