If a taxpayer who intends to entrust the financial institution at which the taxpayer holds a deposit account or savings account with the withdrawal of deposits or savings and the payment of a national tax with the money so withdrawn requests the district director of the tax office to give the financial institution notice of the matters necessary for that payment, being a notice specified by Ministry of Finance Order, the district director of the tax office may accept the request only if the payment is found to be certain and accepting the request is found to be advantageous for the collection of national tax.
If a national tax for which the tax amount payable has been determined by the filing of a return filed by the due date, and whose due date for payment comes at the same time as the due date for filing that return, has been paid based on the notice referred to in the preceding paragraph by the date specified by Cabinet Order, the provisions on postponement of tax payment and delinquent tax apply by deeming the payment to have been made on the due date for payment, even if the day of payment comes after the due date for payment.

district director
税務署長
The head of a tax office (税務署), the local office of the National Tax Agency that deals with taxpayers in its district (Act for Establishment of the Ministry of Finance, Article 24). It is the office a person usually deals with: an income tax return is filed with a district director (Income Tax Act, Article 120, paragraph (1)), and reassessments, determinations and the collection of national tax are done by the district director for the taxpayer's current place for tax payment (Act on General Rules for National Taxes, Articles 30 and 43). A person who objects to what a district director has decided can ask that director to look at it again (再調査の請求) or go straight to the National Tax Tribunal (Article 75, paragraph (1), item (i)) — unless the notice of the decision says officials of a Regional Taxation Bureau or of the National Tax Agency investigated, in which case it counts as the regional commissioner's decision, with the same choice, or as the Commissioner of the National Tax Agency's, which can only be challenged by a request for review to the Commissioner (Article 75, paragraph (2)).
