How to send money from Japan to Brazil

Pick a company

We suggest starting with Regency FX since it's the cheapest option for sending ¥1,000,000.

Regency FX was the cheapest on 26 of the 26 days it quoted ¥1,000,000 transfers to Brazil.

The best and cheapest options will change depending on the amount, so it's a good idea to to get the best JPY/BRL rate today.

Fund your transfer

You can fund your transfer from Japan via bank transfer.

A furikomi from your bank reaches the money transfer company account the same day.

You can also pay cash at a konbini terminal or an ATM for cash transfer.

Verify and send

When opening a new money transfer account, you'll need your residence card to register (tourists can't send money from Japan).

If you support family back home, ask about registering them as dependents, it may cut your income and resident tax (not tax advice).

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send ¥1,000,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what ¥1,000,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.

The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.

When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more BRL per JPY than the mid-market rate can offer.

This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.

No company, app or bank beat the mid-market rate over the past month, meaning you lose a bit of BRL on every transfer from Japan.

Right now, Regency FX pays 33,798.5 BRL on 1,000,000 JPY, which is 91.5 BRL less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 33,960.06 BRL.

If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Cheapest over time

Picking the cheapest money transfer company

Just because a company is the cheapest today doesn't mean it's always the best option for sending money to Brazil.

We've tracked 61 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 3 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 26 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. OFXAppeared in 50 comparisons

    Cheapest in 10% of them

  3. RevolutAppeared in 53 comparisons

    Cheapest in 2% of them

Based on 61 comparisons across 3 amounts over the last 30 days.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.

To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).

Today Regency FX is the cheapest, but it only quotes some of the amounts we track, so it isn't included in these figures.

OFX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 10% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Brazil.

Ways to send money from Japan to Brazil

4 companies send money from Japan to Brazil.

Everyday transfers

Online transfers

Online transfers to Brazil are usually faster and cheaper than a traditional Japanese bank wire.

Depending on the service, you can deposit money via bank transfer (Suica and other IC cards won’t work).

Revolut is the cheapest option.

It charges ¥3500 to send 1,000,000 JPY and your recipient gets 33,404.94 BRL (after a 1.16% markup). The BRL will arrive in within minutes.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 15 of the 29 days it quoted.

You will normally need your residence card to open an account.

Regular overseas spending

Multi-currency accounts

A multi-currency account lets you convert part of your yen and keep BRL for future payments.

Revolut lets you hold JPY and BRL in one account and swap between them as you need.

Converting ¥1,000,000 gets you 33,404.94 BRL, after 1.16% markup and ¥3500 fee.

Over the past month, Revolut came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 52% of days.

This is convenient for receiving payments in JPY or BRL, or spending money when traveling to Brazil.

Paying contractors

Global accounts

Global accounts help Japanese businesses make repeat payments to contractors and suppliers in Brazil.

Wise Business and Payoneer offer great business accounts in Japan.

Ways to fund JPY and receive BRL in Brazil

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending ¥1,000,000 gives your recipient 33,798.5 BRL.

You can fund the yen side by bank transfer.

Pay from a Japanese bank account

Transfer JPY using the account and reference provided by the money transfer company.

A domestic bank payment funds the transfer (usually very fast), but it does not determine how quickly BRL reaches the recipient.

For the payout, your recipient can use bank deposit in Brazil.

Consider this when sending JPY to Brazil

The weak yen makes the exchange-rate margin especially important. Foreign residents should also expect identity and purpose checks before the first overseas transfer.

Compare JPY/BRL transfer options

These are the leading options for a ¥1,000,000 transfer to Brazil.

Cheapest way to send money to Brazil

The cheapest option is Regency FX, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 33,798.5 BRL, which is 0.23% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Brazil

The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 33,404.94 BRL in within minutes.

Have your residence details ready

Japanese banks and registered funds-transfer companies can ask for a residence card, address, My Number and the purpose of an overseas payment.

The exact documents depend on the money transfer company and transfer purpose.

The first payment may take longer while the account is being checked.

Keep the invoice or document explaining the payment ready if you are sending tuition, property money or a large personal transfer.

The Financial Services Agency advises foreign residents to use a licensed bank or Funds Transfer Service Provider.

You can’t use Suica for deposits

PayPay, Suica, IC cards, and a domestic furikomi are useful inside Japan, but they do not send JPY to Brazil.

A large gift can create Japanese gift tax

Japan's annual basic gift-tax exemption is ¥1.1 million per recipient under the calendar-year system.

The recipient may need to file and pay tax when total gifts received during the year exceed that amount.

Residence and asset-location rules can make cross-border cases more complicated, so do not assume that receiving the money in an overseas account avoids Japanese tax.

Non-bank remittance balances are protected under the Payment Services Act, but they are not ordinary bank deposits, so avoid leaving more money there beyond what you need to send.

How we analyse the market

We track 4 registered funds transfer companies sending JPY to Brazil, updated in real time on live searches.

With the yen weak, the exchange margin decides more than the fee does, so that's what we lead the comparison on, along with the ways to pay and collect.

In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 61 comparisons across 3 amounts.

This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for JPY/BRL transfers. This is how we pick them:

  • Cheapest: the company that gets your recipient the most, after fees and the exchange rate. On a tie, live pricing from the company takes priority over the rates we collect by hand.

  • Fastest: the company with the shortest estimated delivery time once you’ve paid. On a tie, the one that pays out more takes priority.
