I am looking for reasonably fast (within few hours) transfer of reasonably large (~10 mil)JPY amount. Being non resident, it's my understanding I can't apply for bank account. What are my options? I use Wise a lot and it's pretty fast, but not sure how it will work with large amounts.
Reason for said arrangement is multi optional agreement where payment needs to be confirmed withing few hours.

When you transfer to a Japanese account in Wise you’ll have two options – one is a domestic transfer (instant) and the other is using SWIFT (several days). I transfered 2m the other day, converted from USD and they recieved it in minutes.
I can’t guarantee this happens every time. All banks are different. Some payments are flagged etc.
