    **第一項**  道府県の徴税吏員は、前条第一項から第三項までの規定による更正又は決定があつた場合において、不足税額（更正による不足税額又は決定による税額をいう。以下この節において同じ。）があるときは、同条第四項の規定による通知をした日から一月を経過する日を納期限として、これを徴収しなければならない。
    <sup>art-74-21/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/en/local-tax-act/art-74-21/par-1 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-74-21/par-1</sup>
    Where a reassessment or determination has been made under paragraphs (1) through (3) of the preceding Article and there is a tax deficiency (meaning the tax deficiency resulting from a reassessment or the tax amount resulting from a determination; the same applies hereinafter in this Section), a prefectural tax collection official must collect it, with the day on which one month has elapsed from the day on which notification was given under paragraph (4) of that Article as the due date for payment.

    **第二項**  前項の場合には、その不足税額に第七十四条の十第一項又は第三項の納期限（納期限の延長があつたときは、その延長された納期限。以下この節において同じ。）の翌日から納付の日までの期間の日数に応じ、年十四・六パーセント（前項の納期限までの期間又は当該納期限の翌日から一月を経過する日までの期間については、年七・三パーセント）の割合を乗じて計算した金額に相当する延滞金額を加算して徴収しなければならない。
    <sup>art-74-21/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/en/local-tax-act/art-74-21/par-2 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-74-21/par-2</sup>
    In the case referred to in the preceding paragraph, an amount of delinquency charge equivalent to the amount calculated by multiplying the tax deficiency by a rate of 14.6 percent per annum (7.3 percent per annum for the period up to the due date for payment under the preceding paragraph or the period up to the day on which one month has elapsed from the day following that due date for payment), according to the number of days in the period from the day following the due date for payment under Article 74-10, paragraph (1) or (3) (where the due date for payment has been extended, the extended due date for payment; the same applies hereinafter in this Section) to the date of payment, must be added to the tax deficiency and collected.
    <sup>machine translation, not official</sup>

    **第三項**  道府県知事は、申告納税者が前条第一項から第三項までの規定による更正又は決定を受けたことについてやむを得ない理由があると認める場合には、前項の延滞金額を減免することができる。
    <sup>art-74-21/par-3 · https://japanlaw.org/en/local-tax-act/art-74-21/par-3 · https://japanlaw.org/l/325AC0000000226/art-74-21/par-3</sup>
    Where the prefectural governor finds that there are unavoidable reasons for the taxpayer filing returns having received a reassessment or determination under paragraphs (1) through (3) of the preceding Article, the governor may reduce or exempt the amount of delinquency charge referred to in the preceding paragraph.
