The hometown tax (ふるさと納税, furusato nōzei) is a system in Japan that allows taxpayers who live in urban areas to contribute to rural areas in return for a tax credit from income tax and residence tax. Its creation was announced by the Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications Yoshihide Suga under Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2007.[1] In July 2014, Abe's then chief cabinet secretary Suga announced that they had established the preparatory office for the “local headquarters”.
The local headquarters was established to help increase the number of children, especially in rural areas, and to promote the development of self-governing bodies. Promoting “hometown tax” is included in these activities.[2]
