How to read USD/JPY

USD/JPY shows how many Japanese yen equal one US dollar. The large number reflects the different currency units and says nothing by itself about an economy's strength.

How is USD/JPY calculated?

This rate is calculated from the two euro reference rates: yen per euro divided by dollars per euro gives yen per dollar. The chart uses only observations from the same day.

How to use the converter

For dollar amounts intended for spending in Japan, calculate the yen equivalent. Yen results are shown without decimal places; the internal calculation retains greater precision. Actual exchange costs may apply in addition.

Understanding historical rates

The chart shows published reference rates within the selected period. Weekends, holidays or missing data can make its start and end differ from the requested period. The change compares the first and last observations actually displayed. It is not the return on a financial product.

Use the historical converter for a specific date. It shows both your requested date and the rate date used. A bank statement from that time may differ because of fees or a different settlement time.

Frequently asked questions about USD/JPY

Is the displayed rate an exchange offer?

No. The displayed values serve as a reference. Your actual target amount depends on your provider's rate and fees. Always compare offers using the same source amount and total charge.

How do I read the change in the chart?

The percentage compares the last available daily value with the first in the selected period. It is neither an average nor a forecast. High and low refer to the available reference observations.

Can I reverse the direction?

The arrow swaps the currencies in the current converter. For the chart and historical conversion, choose the direction using their separate selection fields.
