Everyday transfers
Online transfers
Online transfers to Tanzania 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 ¥13500 to send 1,000,000 JPY and your recipient gets 16,420,378.65 TZS (after a ¥13500 fee and a 1.4% markup). The TZS will arrive in within minutes.
You will normally need your residence card to open an account.
