- ■ Important announcement ■ [Notes on applying 10% consumption tax to students newly registered in September] From October 1 this year, the consumption tax will be raised from 8% to 10% in Japan. GabbyTokyo lesson fees are charged as “external tax” on “Monthly Fee” listed in the fee table as before. With regard to this consumption tax, if a student who is newly registered in September becomes a member by card payment, the new tax rate equivalent of 10% will be applied in advance from September due to the system change of the payment agency So please be careful. For new students starting in September, the new tax rate will be applied after September 11th. We are very burdensome for students, but please be aware of this announcement from us. In addition, there is no application from September for students who have been using card payments. Thank you for your understanding.
