Compare the real cost of sending Japanese Yen to Vietnamese Dong, shown for about ¥160,000.00 (roughly USD 1,000). Real provider quotes are ranked by the amount your recipient receives after every fee and margin; providers without a live quote are listed separately as estimates. Mid-market rate as of 2026-10-27: 1 JPY = 164.08 VND.

● Live quote = a real price collected 2026-10-27 06:39 UTC for about ¥160,000.00, via Wise's quote API (Wise) and Wise's public price-comparison data (other providers and banks). That feed is collected by Wise, which also competes with several of these providers; it reflects standard delivery and excludes first-transfer promotions, so your own quote may differ. Recipient gets = (amount − flat fee) × (1 − transfer fee) × rate after margin, where rate after margin = mid-market rate × (1 − FX margin). Total cost = what ¥160,000.00 is worth at the mid-market rate minus what the recipient gets. FX margin is measured against the mid-market rate shown above, so small negative values just mean a provider's rate was marginally better than our reference.
These providers had no fresh quote for this route. The figures use typical published fees and margins, are not quotes, and are deliberately not ranked against the live quotes above.
| Provider | Rate after margin | Flat fee (JPY) | Transfer fee | FX margin | Total cost | Recipient gets | Data type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Remitly | 163.09 | ¥165.31 | — | 0.60% | ₫184,472 (0.70%) | ₫26,067,535 VND | Typical fee (estimate) |
Typical fee (estimate) = typical published fees and margins, not a quote for this transfer. Recipient gets = (amount − flat fee) × (1 − transfer fee) × rate after margin, where rate after margin = mid-market rate × (1 − FX margin). Total cost = what ¥160,000.00 is worth at the mid-market rate minus what the recipient gets. FX margin is measured against the mid-market rate shown above, so small negative values just mean a provider's rate was marginally better than our reference.

Transfers from Japan to Vietnam are most commonly sent for business and family support. On a ¥160,000.00 transfer, the choice of provider can make a difference of ₫138,873 — money that disappears into fees and FX margin when you pick the wrong service.
The advertised exchange rate is rarely what you get. Most banks and transfer services quote a rate that includes a hidden FX margin of 0.5–4% above the mid-market JPY/VND rate. That margin is often the largest single cost on a transfer, which is why FX Skipper deducts it before ranking and shows you what actually arrives in Vietnam.
Based on real provider quotes collected 2026-10-27 06:39 UTC for about ¥160,000.00, InstaReM gave the best result: your recipient receives about ₫26,035,695 (0.82% total cost). 3 providers had a live quote for this route. Quotes change daily — confirm with the provider before sending.
Among the live quotes, total cost ranges from about ₫216,312 to ₫355,186 — a difference of roughly ₫138,873 on a single transfer.
The mid-market rate is approximately 1 JPY = 164.08 VND as of 2026-10-27. Providers add an FX margin on top — the table shows each provider's effective rate after that margin is deducted.
Transfer times vary by provider, delivery method and corridor — from minutes for some bank transfers and cash pickups to one to three business days. We do not publish delivery times for this route because we have not verified them; check the speed estimate in the provider's own quote before you send.
It is safer when you use a licensed and regulated provider. FX Skipper compares prices but does not vet or endorse providers, so always confirm the provider holds a valid licence in Japan and that the receiving method suits your recipient in Vietnam.
