Japanese yen currency guide
Yen notes come in denominations of JPY$1000, 2000, 5000 and 10,000, and due to the low exchange value of a single yen, Japanese yen are usually quoted in multiples of 10,000 for large exchanges. You can buy yen notes securely from OnlineFX in amounts starting at £50 exchange.
It's important to carry out your yen currency exchange before heading to Japan, as many cash machines operate limited hours and will not accept international credit or debit cards. You can also choose to buy Japanese travellers cheques from OnlineFX, which are widely accepted by major banks, hotels, restaurants and stores in big cities. Some airports and hotels may make a small charge when cashing in travellers cheques.
