Hello !
My new landlord has just told me I need to have a Japanese Bank account for my rent. I have not had one before as I was told they are a pain for someone only here for university. I have just over one year left here but seems I will end up having to get one in the end …
I know they can be a pain/have fees to close and so on.
I was wondering if any of you had been in a similar situation and had to make a bank. If so , and you know one that has low fees (especially in regards closure) or can be kept open after I leave the country. I may return someday but I am not sure now.
Do not worry about English support – I can speak Japanese and all the other services I use are all in Japanese , so it should not be a problem. In other word, if there is a bank with good fees and convenient use but only in Japanese, that is just as good as, if not better than an English speaking bank.
Thank you for your help!!
