Abstract	The Belle II experiment is an upgrade of the Belle detector and will operate at the SuperKEKB energy-asymmetric e+e− collider. The accelerator has already successfully completed the first phase of commissioning and first electron positron-collisions in Belle II were observed in April 2018. The design luminosity of SuperKEKB is 8x10^35 cm−2 s−1 and the Belle II experiment aims to record 50 ab−1 of data. Belle II has a broad program of tau physics, in particular, precision measurements of Standard Model parameters and searches of lepton flavor and lepton number violations, benefiting from the large cross-section of the pairwise tau lepton production in e+e− collisions. In this talk, we will review the tau lepton physics program of Belle II.
