Somehow I get the feeling they don't even read the forms and just trust whatever number is on the bottom right... multiple times.

I think I know what happened. They think I'm two different people. Did you know a Spanish name can be written in 8 different ways in Japan?

fwiw, I'm sure this also often happens for Japanese people in western countries due to different romanisations.

Of course it does. Spanish names are doubly painful, though, due to the (often omitted) second last name. Even in Western countries.

E.g. my Irish bank had me as "Hector M. Cantero" which is just completely wrong.

Irish bank... I guess the name isn't the only inaccurate statement you've made on your tax form
