Yamagata Forex Broker - Account Type

　　Yamagata Forex Broker offers a variety of trading accounts tailored to meet different investor needs. The types of accounts available include:

• General Accounts (一般口座):
• These are the least regulated accounts, providing access to a broad range of products. However, investors are responsible for all tax calculations and declarations related to capital gains.
• Designated Accounts (特定口座):
• This type automates tax calculations, making it easier for investors. There are two sub-types:
• No-Withholding Accounts (源泉徴収なし): The brokerage calculates annual taxable gains/losses and provides a transaction report, but the investor must declare gains and pay taxes.
• Withholding Accounts (源泉徴収あり): The brokerage calculates gains/losses and withholds taxes automatically, relieving the investor of the need to declare income on their tax return.
• Demo Accounts:
• Yamagata also provides demo accounts for users to practice trading without financial risk.
