Reimbursing overpayment from employers

I am a freelancer. A company I work for paid me twice for January’s hours. They are asking for me to wire one of the payments back (I have confirmed with my bank that yes I was paid twice).

I asked them to file a Kumimodoshi 組み戻し. They have requested that as their financial year is about to end and these take time to resolve, they would prefer for me to return the fund by transfer.

I do want to be clear that I trust them. I have worked with them for a number of years, and I do not believe they are attempting to scam me.

What I would like to know is, if simply wire finds back is considered a standard and sound practice. I don’t want to do anything that breaks any laws, or would put me or my visa at any risk.

I did search in other posts, but what I found was not specific to my problem.

To anyone who might reply, thank you for your insight.
