Client Testimonials

James Huang, CEO Mercury KK / Mercury United LLC. https://mtsoln.com/ (HK, Singapore, UK, Taiwan)

Gipango was instrumental in our expansion into Japan, providing comprehensive support at every stage. Nobuko and her team expertly managed our Godo Kaisha (GK) company formation, visa applications, Japanese bank account setup, and complex tax and financial filings. Their deep local and cross-border expertise ensured a seamless and compliant process.

Beyond foundational support, Gipango offered strategic advice on Japan’s social insurance system, office locations, and our business development strategy. For any global business entering the Japanese market, Gipango is an outstanding and reliable partner.

Schneider Zita, CEO Patriapharma Japan KK / https://cfpharma.hu (Hungary)

Working with Nobuko was crucial during the early establishment of Patriapharma’s operations in Japan. As our representative director, she helped navigate PMDA regulatory procedures, supported complex cross-border API registration involving both Hungary and India, and provided local coordination with pharmaceutical consultants. Her dedication, cultural fluency, and ability to bridge international operations with Japanese regulatory systems made a real difference in establishing our presence in a highly competitive market.

Christopher Own Su-yan, CEO Voxa Japan KK / https://www.voxa.co (U.S.)

Nobuko was essential in helping get our regional office, Voxa Japan, set up for operations. Bringing a broad set of skills, especially in language and communications, plus prior experiences with small international companies, Nobuko critically helped set up business processes, navigate intricate bureaucracy, make business introductions, and guide us through Japanese regulatory and personnel systems. Her strong bias toward action and principled and trustworthy approach put boots on the ground swiftly, and enabled our business to get going with few impediments.

Adrian Logue, CEO DeeZai LLC. (Australia)

Gipango has been an essential partner in helping me establish my company and build a stable foundation for doing business in Japan. From correcting missing company registration documents to advising on tax compliance, annual filings, and subsidy applications, Nobuko and her team offered hands-on, highly responsive support throughout.

Their knowledge of Japan’s regulatory environment, real estate landscape, and local coordination—from waste disposal logistics to sourcing licensed electricians for an abandoned property renovation—was incredibly valuable. Gipango bridged the cultural and administrative gaps that often prevent foreign entrepreneurs from succeeding in regional Japan.

If you’re looking for reliable, localized, and multilingual support for company formation, business development, and real estate-based ventures in Japan, Gipango is a trusted and highly effective partner.
