Frequently Asked Questions (Property Tax)

QuestionWhat is the procedure for changing the ownership of fixed assets (land and buildings) due to the death of the owner?

Response

For changes of ownership related to the sale, inheritance, etc. of registered land and buildings within Inagi City, please complete the procedures at the Tokyo Legal Affairs Bureau Fuchu Branch (Phone: 042-335-4753). If the ownership transfer registration is completed by the end of December, documents such as the payment notice for the next fiscal year's Property Tax will be sent based on the registration details.
Also, for procedural reasons, if the inheritance registration (name change) is not completed by the end of December, you will need to designate a representative among the heirs to receive documents such as the payment slip for the Property Tax for the following fiscal year. In this case, the "Heir Representative Notification Form" will be sent to one of the legal heirs, so please be sure to submit it if the inheritance registration is delayed.
