  • 2.Tax planning
  • Kanto Denka Kogyo Group will seek advice from outside experts as necessary, and will conduct fair and appropriate tax planning with full consideration of the legislative intent of tax laws.
    In addition, the Group does not apply preferential tax treatment based on interpretations that deviate from the legislative intent of laws and regulations, intentional tax avoidance that is not in line with business objectives, or abusive tax planning that takes advantage of lightly taxed countries.
