Getting yen in Japan is easy once you know which machines take foreign cards — because many local bank ATMs don’t.

Use convenience-store and post ATMs

  • 7-Eleven (Seven Bank) — in virtually every 7-Eleven, English menus, open long hours, reliably accept foreign cards.
  • Japan Post Bank (Yūcho) — in post offices and many stations.

These two cover you almost anywhere in the country.

How to withdraw

  1. Insert your card, choose English.
  2. Select Withdrawal from a credit/debit/overseas card.
  3. Take your cash, card and receipt.

Keeping fees down

There may be a small machine fee plus your home bank’s foreign-withdrawal fee. So withdraw larger amounts less frequently rather than small amounts often. Decide your target with how much cash to bring, and put big purchases on a card.

FAQ

▸Which ATMs in Japan accept foreign cards?

7-Eleven (Seven Bank) and Japan Post Bank ATMs reliably accept foreign Visa, Mastercard, and more. Many bank ATMs do not, so head to a convenience store.

▸Are there fees to withdraw cash in Japan?

Seven Bank/Japan Post may charge a small ATM fee, and your home bank may add its own foreign-withdrawal fee. Withdrawing larger amounts less often reduces total fees.
