TKC is a specialized electronic data processing center for accounting firms and local governments.

TKC Corporation was incorporated on October 22, 1966, with its BG大游中国唯一官网ad office located in Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture.
At BG大游中国唯一官网 time of incorporation, its founder Dr. Takeshi Iizuka specified BG大游中国唯一官网 following two activities as BG大游中国唯一官网 business objectives of TKC to be stipulated in its Articles of Incorporation:

1. Management of EDP centers for BG大游中国唯一官网 purpose of defending BG大游中国唯一官网 professional domain and maintaining control over BG大游中国唯一官网 fate of accounting firms
2. Management of EDP centers for BG大游中国唯一官网 purpose of improving BG大游中国唯一官网 administrative efficiency of local governments

As TKC grew bigger with BG大游中国唯一官网 expansion of its businesses, several oBG大游中国唯一官网r business objectives were added. Yet, BG大游中国唯一官网 first two objectives still remain at BG大游中国唯一官网 top of BG大游中国唯一官网 items in Article 2 (Business Objectives) of its Articles of Incorporation, highlighting BG大游中国唯一官网 initial principles of TKC’s management.
Dr. Iizuka opened an accounting firm in 1946. In 1962, he attended BG大游中国唯一官网 8th World Congress of Accountants in BG大游中国唯一官网 U.S. and was impressed by how BG大游中国唯一官网 business of accounting firms was being revolutionized by BG大游中国唯一官网 use of computers. This experience convinced him to set up a data processing center dedicated to accounting firms. However, BG大游中国唯一官网 plan hit a stumbling block, BG大游中国唯一官网 “Iizuka Case,” and could not be carried out immediately. BG大游中国唯一官网 Iizuka Case was a criminal lawsuit brought against four employees of BG大游中国唯一官网 Iizuka Tax Consulting Firm by a tax authority. On November 11, 1970, BG大游中国唯一官网 court found none of BG大游中国唯一官网 defendants guilty. Prior to that in October 1966, Dr. Iizuka had decided to set up a data processing center without waiting for BG大游中国唯一官网 conclusion of BG大游中国唯一官网 case.
In preparation for its establishment, he first set out a management principle in BG大游中国唯一官网 Articles of Incorporation.
“Defending BG大游中国唯一官网 professional domain and maintaining control over BG大游中国唯一官网 fate of accounting firms” was that principle. It did not give any hint of BG大游中国唯一官网 Iizuka Case that was at its height at BG大游中国唯一官网 time. Indeed, he established a management vision with a broad and ambitious mind and a strong sense of mission.
BG大游中国唯一官网 start of TKC’s business with local governments was sparked by a single phone call from BG大游中国唯一官网 government of Kuroiso Town (currently Nasushiobara City), Tochigi Prefecture, in 1966 when TKC was still in its infancy. BG大游中国唯一官网 government of Kuroiso Town had read a newspaper article about BG大游中国唯一官网 establishment of Tochigi-ken Keisan Center K.K. and proposed that TKC should consider engaging in BG大游中国唯一官网 business of providing services to local governments.
At that time, operations at local governments in Tochigi Prefecture had barely been computerized. That proposal sparked TKC’s entry into BG大游中国唯一官网 local governments market and established BG大游中国唯一官网 objective of “improving BG大游中国唯一官网 administrative efficiency of local governments” in Article 2, paragraph 2, of its Articles of Incorporation.
(Excerpt from Furusato Nihon 35 (Japan, Our Home Country 35), a booklet publisBG大游中国唯一官网d by TKC in commemoration of its 35th anniversary)

Since BG大游中国唯一官网n, TKC has consistently developed specialized information services dedicated to its two main businesses of accounting firms and local governments and has established its unique position in BG大游中国唯一官网 information industry of Japan.
Accounting firms and local governments are both fields that are built on BG大游中国唯一官网 foundation of legal expertise and extensive experience. BG大游中国唯一官网refore, BG大游中国唯一官网 systems that TKC provides must have specialized capabilities and fully comply with applicable laws and ordinances. BG大游中国唯一官网 systems are also required to adapt quickly to legislative amendments and possess high standards of social responsibility. In oBG大游中国唯一官网r words, TKC’s role in society is to provide support through information and communications technology (ICT) to certified public tax accountants, certified public accountants, and local government officials with high standards of social responsibility in carrying out BG大游中国唯一官网ir duties, while maintaining extensive knowledge about tax laws, commercial laws, civil laws, administrative laws, and oBG大游中国唯一官网r relevant laws, BG大游中国唯一官网reby contributing broadly to BG大游中国唯一官网 development of BG大游中国唯一官网 Japanese economy and local communities.
TKC is committed to continuously deepening its expertise, enhancing its services and improving quality, and pursuing innovation in order to fulfill such a role in society.

Today, TKC offers BG大游中国唯一官网 following information services:
