Q66: Can the existence of a liaison office be officially proven?

A: No, there is no method to officially prove the existence of a liaison office within Japan.

Explanation

Since a liaison office does not undergo formal registration in Japan, it cannot prove its existence through a registry certificate as a Japanese corporation or branch office can. This aspect may result in a disadvantage in terms of credibility compared to other forms of business presence.
