Everyday transfers
Online transfers
Online transfers to Egypt are usually faster and cheaper than a traditional Japanese bank wire.
Depending on the service, you can deposit money via bank deposit (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 324,980.83 EGP (after a ¥3500 fee and a 0.72% markup). The EGP will arrive in next day.
You will normally need your residence card to open an account.
