Fast, reliable
AG offers advice from Yokohama on a fast and reliable way to get money from the USA to Japan.
"Use the old-fashioned international postal money orders. You can buy them at any post office in the USA, value up to $700 each. Simply mail them by letter to the recipient in Japan. (In case of loss or theft you can reclaim your money.) "Here in Japan, cash them at the next post office against your ID."
