How much cash can you bring into Japan?

According to Japanese customs regulations, travelers can bring up to 1 million Japanese yen (approximately $9,000 USD as of 2023) in cash into Japan without declaring it to customs. However, amounts exceeding 1 million yen must be declared upon arrival.

For foreign currencies, there is no limit on the amount you can bring into Japan, but amounts exceeding 1 million yen equivalent in foreign currencies must also be declared to customs.

It's important to note that these regulations apply to cash only. Other valuable items such as jewelry, precious metals, and antiques may have different regulations and may need to be declared to customs separately.

For more detailed and up-to-date information, it's always a good idea to consult the latest regulations from the Japan Customs website or contact the Japanese Embassy or Consulate in your country before your trip.
