How to exchange Japanese yen before traveling to Japan?

You can buy foreign exchange cash in online banking, and then go directly to the counter to withdraw it. Generally, people under 200,000 don't need to make an appointment. Can get it. If the quantity is large, it is recommended to make an appointment in advance.

Most large chain stores in Japan can basically accept UnionPay, but small stores basically only accept JCB or VISA\MASTER.

As for how much to bring, it varies from person to person, depending on your itinerary, free travel or group tour. If you join a group, most of your expenses have been paid. You just need to take a little money with you and you can spend it. Fifty thousand dollars is enough. If you are a freelancer, basically 70000- 100000 yen is absolutely enough. These expenses are mainly your transportation in Japan, the cost of eating, and the cost of some small souvenirs. Personal recommendation, if the cost exceeds 5000, then you can swipe your card. Cash is useful, but it is useful. After all, I don't have any cash with me, and I have mental problems.

Exchange rate refers to the ratio or price of one country's currency to another country's currency, or the price of another country's currency expressed in one country's currency. Exchange rate changes have a direct regulatory effect on a country's import and export trade.
