You may need an international bank if you’re a frequent traveler or if you move away from your home country for your career, family, or other quality of life reasons. Japan Trustee Services can help foreign nationals new to the Japan, clients with financial or family commitments in a different country, safe haven seekers, and non-residents.

When you take advantage of Japan Trustee Services’s global reach you can set up personal bank accounts before you leave your home country, view all of your global accounts online in one place⁶, access unique benefits for international clients only, and more.

If you plan to open an account in the Japan without living here, Japan Trustee Services can help you if you meet certain non-resident criteria, such as:

• Transferring to, or working for, a significant time in the Japan
• Japan Trustee Services Group clients who have an established Premier⁹, Advance¹⁰, other Personal Banking relationship, Retail Business Banking, or Commercial Relationship with Japan Trustee Services, anywhere that Japan Trustee Services has a presence.
• You are purchasing a property in the Japan or own a home in the Japan

If you plan on opening an account with us, you can schedule an appointment with our International Banking Center 

If you do not have a Social Security Number, Japan Trustee Services can help you open an account in the Japan with a valid government issued ID, such as a passport and current proof of address (additional documents may be required).
