Public Procurement

A number of embassies and trade promotion organizations of EU-Member states also provide information on public procurement in Japan. 

• AHK German Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan
• GOOSE (EU Funded Project by Catalonian, Croatian, Flemish and Estonian Trade Promotion Organisations) 

Upon request, JTPP Helpdesk provides training sessions on aspects of Japanese government procurement to business developers at EU SMEs, staff at trade promotion organisations and others who wish to pursue opportunities in the government procurement market. 

Training sessions are usually tailored-made and delivered both online or offline. On this page we provide recordings of online training sessions, previously offered by JTPP Helpdesk.

On 4 May, BusinessEurope sent a letter to the European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen sharing its priorities ahead of the EU-Japan Summit. The letter highlights the strong partnership between the EU and Japan with the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) as the bedrock of the economic relationship.

This webinar will cover whether foreign enterprises that provide online services/products to Japanese consumers are liable for Japanese taxes as well as some tips that will help them reduce the tax risk.
