You can send money internationally to your beneficiary by making a bank transfer (Denshin Furikomi) from your Japanese bank account to one of Kyodai Remittance’s bank accounts. After you make the transfer, Kyodai will process the remittance once they receive confirmation of your deposit.

Before you start

Before you make a bank transfer:

• Make sure both you and your beneficiary are already registered in the Kyodai Remittance system.

• Be sure to make the transfer using the same name that is registered with Kyodai Remittance.

How it works

1. Make the transfer from your bank account in Japan to one of Kyodai Remittance’s bank accounts.

2. Contact Kyodai Remittance after you’ve made the transfer to inform them of:

   • The amount transferred, and

   • The name of the beneficiary that you want the money sent to.

   You can contact them using one of these methods:

   • Through the KyodaiApp

   • Your registered email address

   • Your registered phone number or fax (if available)

3. Kyodai will verify your deposit in their account, and then process your remittance to the beneficiary.

Important notes

• The bank you use will charge a transfer fee, so check with your bank for details before you send.

• If you make the transfer but don’t inform Kyodai Remittance of the details, they may not be able to process your remittance.

Processing times

Bank transfer remittances are processed during Japanese bank business hours:

• Japan Post Bank – 10:00 to 18:45 (except Japanese holidays)

• Other banks – 10:00 to 18:45 (except weekends and Japanese holidays)
