Money Transfers into Japan
Money Transfers into Japan are easy to process. Money transfers can generally be made within 2 days using an advanced payment provider such as FTT.
Payments will need a SWIFT/BIC code which is a unique code for the bank where the destination account is held. The SWIFT/BIC ID consists of between 8 and 11 capital letters and numbers.
Money Transfers out of Japan
Money Transfers out of Japan require some careful planning. If you send the payment directly to a bank account which is not denominated in Japanese Yen then the bank holding the account will charge you several percent to convert the currency. The best way to avoid this charge is to use a firm like FTT Currency as they hold a Japanese Yen account. This way your funds can leave Japan as Japanese Yen and be converted at beneficial exchange rates to the currency of your choice.
