# Taxes on Stripe fees for businesses in Japan

For Stripe account holders in Japan, Japanese Consumption Tax (JCT) applies to certain Stripe fees (such as Connect, Radar and certain payment processing fees) at the prevailing standard rate.
The JCT fee is applied in addition to Stripe's product and service fees. Your monthly tax invoice containing details of these fees will be delivered to the [Documents](https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/documents) section of your Stripe Dashboard by the 10th of each month _(Settings > Reporting and Documents > Documents)_.

Stripe Japan is registered as a [business issuer of qualified invoices](https://www.nta.go.jp/english/taxes/consumption_tax/pdf/2021/simplified_15.pdf), and issues compliant tax invoices.
**Rounding logic for JCT for qualified tax invoices.**
The JCT amounts on the qualified tax invoices are rounded at the overall invoice level to the nearest yen in accordance with the National Tax Agency's requirements.
