How to send money from Japan to Italy

Pick a company

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

Key Currency was the cheapest on 28 of the 28 days it quoted ¥1,000,000 transfers to Italy.

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

JPY/EUR Exchange Rate History

Is today a good time to send money from Japan to Italy?

The cheapest way to send JPY to EUR can change every day, or stay with the same company all month.

We've compared the mid-market rate with the cheapest option each day (today it's Key Currency), across 30 days of comparisons for 1,000,000 JPY transfers to Italy.

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 EUR 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 EUR on every transfer from Japan.

Right now, Key Currency pays 5,682.69 EUR on 1,000,000 JPY, which is 14.24 EUR less than the mid-market amount.

Today's payout is the highest in the past month.

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 Italy.

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

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

Ways to send money from Japan to Italy

9 companies send money from Japan to Italy.

Everyday transfers

Online transfers

Online transfers to Italy 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 5,664.82 EUR (after a -0.05% markup). The EUR will arrive in within minutes.

In our comparisons over the past month, it was the cheapest online service on 21 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 EUR for future payments.

Currencies Direct lets you hold JPY and EUR in one account and swap between them as you need.

Converting ¥1,000,000 gets you 5,665 EUR, after -0.05% markup and ¥0 fee.

Over the past month, Currencies Direct came out cheapest among multi-currency accounts on 97% of days.

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

Paying contractors

Global accounts

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

Wise Business and Payoneer offer great business accounts in Japan.

Ways to fund JPY and receive EUR in Italy

With Key Currency, paying by bank transfer and receiving through a bank deposit is the cheapest combination. Sending ¥1,000,000 gives your recipient 5,682.69 EUR.

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 EUR reaches the recipient.

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

Consider this when sending JPY to Italy

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/EUR transfer options

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

Cheapest way to send money to Italy

The cheapest option is Key Currency, funded by bank transfer with bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 5,682.69 EUR, which is 0.02% more than the next best option.

Fastest way to send money to Italy

The fastest option is Revolut. Pay by bank transfer and choose bank deposit for the payout. Your recipient gets 5,664.82 EUR 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 Italy.

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 9 registered funds transfer companies sending JPY to Italy, 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.
