I think there was a previous topic about yen-denominated deposit accounts in the US, but I can't find it.

When I send money from Japan, it is deposited in dollars when it is wired to my bank here. There used to be a yen-denominated account at Union Bank, but it seems to be gone now. 2 ~ Is there any Yen Account that can be maintained with a balance of less than $30,000 ??

I don't see the advantage of having a yen-denominated deposit in an American bank.

Thank you, SJDummy. Yes, all banks except TIAA require a substantial balance, and since yen transfers to TIAA can only be made through other banks, we can only receive a limited number of transfers. 

For those of you who have had small yen deposits with Union Bank, are you still maintaining your accounts?

Yesterday, I bought Yen with a JPY Foreign Currency Time Deposit I made when I was at Union Bank. I heard that I cannot make a new one at US bank.

Why do you live in the US and need a Japanese Yen account ??

2 ~ It would be nice if you could maintain a balance of less than $30,000 USD and still pay in yen
If you pay from an account you have in Japan towards the US
you could do it for a small fee.
