To reduce processing times, always enter a deposit notification to notify IBSJ of your incoming fund transfer and to receive the correct banking instructions.
If funds are sent without a corresponding deposit notification, proof of deposit may be requested to credit the funds to your account.
Local - Your Japanese bank's daily cutoff times may affect the funds' arrival. Should clients miss the daily deadline set by their bank, the funds should arrive the next business day. Please confirm this information with your Japanese bank.
International - The arrival of funds may take longer when sending JPY from an international bank via International Transfer (up to 3-4 business days in some cases). Be sure to include your name and U-account number in the memo/reference field of the transfer details. Failure to include this information may delay the arrival of funds to your account.
The timing for JPY deposits varies based on the payment network your bank uses to transfer the funds.
| Payment Type | Timing | Approximate Cost* | ||
| Domestic | Same day/following business day | Free to a few hundred Yen | ||
| International (SWIFT) | 1 to 4 business days | Varies by bank |
*Please consult with the sending institution about the costs to process your payment as this may vary by financial institution. IBKR does not charge fees for the deposit of funds.

- IBKR credit funds in real-time upon receipt under normal circumstances.
- We do not have influence on the speed of transfer. You may consult with the sending institution regarding their processing times and cut off times.
