Statista 2019, Oct 15 - How Much Are Japan and Korea Paying for U.S. Troops?

In February, South Korea and the U.S. had signed an interim agreement, raising Seoul’s contribution for U.S. protection from $830 million to $924 million annually, according to the Japan Times. The new increase is much bigger, however, with the Trump administration allegedly planning to charge the country a total of $4.8 billion – five times what it is currently paying.

Looking at troop levels in Korea and Japan, a comparable increase for Japan would see the country pay between $8 and $20 billion per year for U.S. troops. In 2017, Japan paid $4.4 billion to the U.S., according to UPI.
