相続又は遺贈（当該相続に係る被相続人からの贈与により取得した財産で第二十一条の九第三項の規定の適用を受けるものに係る贈与を含む。以下この条において同じ。）により財産を取得した者及び当該被相続人に係る相続時精算課税適用者は、当該被相続人からこれらの事由により財産を取得したすべての者に係る相続税の課税価格（第十九条又は第二十一条の十四から第二十一条の十八までの規定の適用がある場合には、これらの規定により相続税の課税価格とみなされた金額）の合計額がその遺産に係る基礎控除額を超える場合において、その者に係る相続税の課税価格（第十九条又は第二十一条の十四から第二十一条の十八までの規定の適用がある場合には、これらの規定により相続税の課税価格とみなされた金額）に係る第十五条から第十九条まで、第十九条の三から第二十条の二まで及び第二十一条の十四から第二十一条の十八までの規定による相続税額があるときは、その相続の開始があつたことを知つた日の翌日から十月以内（その者が国税通則法第百十七条第二項（納税管理人）の規定による納税管理人の届出をしないで当該期間内にこの法律の施行地に住所及び居所を有しないこととなるときは、当該住所及び居所を有しないこととなる日まで）に課税価格、相続税額その他財務省令で定める事項を記載した申告書を納税地の所轄税務署長に提出しなければならない。
If a person who is required to file a return under the preceding paragraph dies without filing that return before the deadline for filing it, the heirs of that person (including universal legatees; the same applies in paragraph (5)) must, as prescribed by Cabinet Order, file the return under the preceding paragraph relating to the person who died with the competent district director with jurisdiction over the place for tax payment of the person who died, within 10 months from the day following the day on which they came to know of the commencement of the succession (or, if that person comes not to have a domicile and residence in the area where this Act is enforced within that period without filing a notification of a tax agent under Article 117, paragraph (2) of the Act on General Rules for National Taxes, by the day on which that person comes not to have that domicile and residence).
前項の規定により申告書を提出すべき者が当該申告書の提出期限前に当該申告書を提出しないで死亡した場合には、その者の相続人（包括受遺者を含む。第五項において同じ。）は、その相続の開始があつたことを知つた日の翌日から十月以内（その者が国税通則法第百十七条第二項の規定による納税管理人の届出をしないで当該期間内にこの法律の施行地に住所及び居所を有しないこととなるときは、当該住所及び居所を有しないこととなる日まで）に、政令で定めるところにより、その死亡した者に係る前項の申告書をその死亡した者の納税地の所轄税務署長に提出しなければならない。
In addition to the case where a person electing settlement taxation at inheritance is required to file a return under paragraph (1), that person may, in order to receive a refund under Article 33-2, paragraph (1), file with the competent district director with jurisdiction over the place for tax payment a return stating the taxable value for inheritance tax on the property to which Article 21-9, paragraph (3) applies, the amount of tax to be refunded and other matters specified by Ministry of Finance Order.
相続時精算課税適用者は、第一項の規定により申告書を提出すべき場合のほか、第三十三条の二第一項の規定による還付を受けるため、第二十一条の九第三項の規定の適用を受ける財産に係る相続税の課税価格、還付を受ける税額その他財務省令で定める事項を記載した申告書を納税地の所轄税務署長に提出することができる。
When a return is filed under the preceding three paragraphs, a detailed statement stating the property and debts at the time of the death of the decedent, a breakdown, for each person, of the property acquired or debts assumed by all persons who have acquired property from that decedent by inheritance or bequest through these causes, and other matters specified by Ministry of Finance Order, and other documents specified by Ministry of Finance Order, must be attached to that return.
