I’m probably over thinking this but I’d love it if someone can help me out here…
So I’m originally from a third world country (we don’t have wise). I’m in japan for less than half a year as a student on exchange. I didn’t get the work permit at the airport, and I’m not working of course.
— I was trying to make a wise account and saw that I need to give “My number”. Thing I’m worried about is if I make an account here and I receive money into my wise account which I then pull out of the atm (nothing enormous, just 300-400k yen over a period of 3 months). Considering that the transfer into my account is probably going to be from some friends or family. I shouldnt run into any tax problems with that in japan right ? Because my understanding is that if your shifting money from another account that’s also in your name then you’re fine, but these transfers won’t be from my own account.
Secondly can I continue to use the wise or maybe revolute account after I leave Japan? Do the accounts work? Will I run into some trouble down the line if I ever come back to Japan in the future.
