How to send money from Japan to Colombia

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 29 of the 29 days it quoted ¥1,000,000 transfers to Colombia.

The best and cheapest options will change depending on the amount, so it's a good idea to to get the best JPY/COP 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 COP 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 COP on every transfer from Japan.

Right now, Regency FX pays 19,903,563.89 COP on 1,000,000 JPY, which is 53,885.11 COP less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 21,353,503.45 COP.

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 Colombia.

We've tracked 62 comparisons to check how often today's top companies were the cheapest across 3 amounts over the past month.

  1. Regency FXAppeared in 29 comparisons

    Cheapest every time

  2. RevolutAppeared in 53 comparisons

    Never the cheapest

  3. WiseAppeared in 62 comparisons

    Cheapest in 2% of them

Based on 62 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.

Revolut (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in only 0% of its comparisons, so it's rarely the cheapest option for transfers to Colombia.

Ways to send money from Japan to Colombia

3 companies send money from Japan to Colombia.

Everyday transfers

Online transfers

Online transfers to Colombia 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 19,615,725.7 COP (after a 1.38% markup). The COP will arrive in within minutes.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 19 of the 28 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 COP for future payments.

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

Converting ¥1,000,000 gets you 19,615,725.7 COP, after 1.38% markup and ¥3500 fee.

Over the past month, Revolut came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 68% of days.

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

Paying contractors

Global accounts

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

Wise Business and Payoneer offer great business accounts in Japan.

Ways to fund JPY and receive COP in Colombia

With Regency FX, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending ¥1,000,000 gives your recipient 19,903,563.89 COP.

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 COP reaches the recipient.

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

Consider this when sending JPY to Colombia

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

Fastest way to send money to Colombia

The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 19,615,725.7 COP 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 Colombia.

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.
