LogProstyle Announces Tax Refund Process for Dividend Payments to Shareholders
In a recent announcement, LogProstyle Inc. (NYSE American: LGPS), headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, under the leadership of President Yasuyuki Nozawa, revealed essential information regarding cash dividends and the refund process for Japanese withholding income tax applicable to non-resident shareholders. This communication outlines the specifics regarding the eligibility for refunds and the necessary steps shareholders need to take to reclaim withheld taxes.
Summary of Dividend Payment
The important dates for the dividend payment are as follows:
- - Dividend Record Date: July 7, 2025
- - Expected Payment Date: August 5, 2025
- - Dividend Amount per Share: $0.023
As part of this dividend payment, LogProstyle will withhold income tax at the appropriate Japanese maximum tax rate of 20.42% and submit this to the tax authorities. However, as this marks the first dividend payment since the company was listed on NYSE American, inquiries regarding withholding obligations were made to the respective tax office and National Tax Agency.
Withholding Tax Rates
In response to these inquiries, the company has received clarifications on the withholding tax rates for different categories of shareholders:
- - For non-residents and foreign corporations: 15.315%
- - For major shareholders (individuals): 20.42%
- - For other shareholders: 0% (the company does not have withholding obligations)
Additionally, shareholders receiving dividends through domestic securities companies will not fall under LogProstyle's withholding tax obligations, simplifying the process for many.
Refund Claims Procedure
Following these clarifications, LogProstyle intends to file for a refund with the tax authority for the difference between the tax withheld and the appropriate withholding amount determined. Shareholders will then need to engage in the refund process outlined below:
