You need to declare if you or your family members are foreign public officials and confirm the tax resident country. 

The OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) has published the “Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF)” to prevent international tax avoidance using crypto-assets. Countries including the Japanese Government have announced the implementation of this framework, which will enable the automatic exchange of crypto-asset transaction information concerning non-residents between national tax authorities.


Binance Japan, as a cryptoasset exchange service provider, is required to collect prescribed information, which may include tax ID and a mandatory self certification  in order to comply with the local regulations. 

If you are living in Japan and a tax resident of Japan only, please check ‘I live in Japan and am a tax resident of Japan only.’ and click [Continue] to submit.

If you are not a tax resident of Japan, please do not check the second box and choose the Tax Residence outside Japan and Tax ID Number in that country. If the Tax ID Number format is not formatted correctly, it can not be processed.
