JPY to EUR Converter.

Current rate

1 JPY = 0.00625 EUR as of 2026-05-18. JPY-EUR has been one of the most dramatic G10 stories of the past five years — JPY weakened from around 0.0078 EUR (~128 yen per euro) in 2021 to a multi-decade low against EUR (~170 yen per euro, or 0.00588) by mid-2024 before recovering slightly to 0.00625 in 2026. The driver is the divergence between BOJ's ultra-loose monetary policy (negative rates until March 2024, then a slow normalization to 0.25-0.5% through 2025-26) and ECB's aggressive 2022-23 hiking cycle to 4.0% before gradual cuts. Japan-EU trade is substantial under the 2019 Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA).

💡 About this corridor

Why people convert JPY to EUR.

The JPY/EUR corridor is driven mostly by Japan travel and Japanese imports. On the Euro side, demand comes from Eurozone purchases, EU remittances, and European business. Because both sides see steady two-way flow, JPY/EUR is one of the more liquid pairs in this region — which usually means tighter spreads and smaller markups than thinly-traded exotic pairs.

Over the past 12 months the Japanese Yen has moved up 3.3% against the Euro, and over five years it has weakened about 19.9% (from 0.0078 to 0.00625). If you're sending money on this corridor, that trend matters: a falling rate means timing your transfer — or locking a rate with a forward contract for large amounts — can change the Euro you receive by a meaningful margin.

Getting the best JPY → EUR rate. The figure above is the mid-market rate — the "true" rate banks and brokers reference. Most banks add a 1–3% margin on top and may charge a flat wire fee. Specialist services (Wise, Remitly, and regional exchange houses on this corridor) typically convert closer to mid-market. Always compare the effective rate after all fees, not just the headline rate — on a large JPY transfer, a 2% difference is real money.

❓ FAQ

JPY to EUR FAQ.

Why has JPY weakened so dramatically against EUR?
The largest sustained monetary policy divergence in G10 history. BOJ held rates at -0.1% through March 2024 even as ECB hiked from -0.5% to 4.0% — a peak 4.5% policy spread. Yen-funded carry trades (borrow JPY at near-zero, invest in higher-yielding EUR or USD assets) drove massive structural JPY selling. BOJ's small 2024-25 tightening to 0.5% has reduced but not closed the gap, and Japan's structural deflation/demographic backdrop limits how fast BOJ can normalize.
How has weak JPY affected Japan-EU trade?
Hugely beneficial for Japanese exporters — Toyota, Sony, Honda, and Japanese pharmaceutical companies have all reported record EUR-denominated revenues since 2022. Conversely, European luxury brands (LVMH, Hermes, Kering) saw their Japan sales surge as inbound Asian tourism poured into Tokyo and Kyoto to take advantage of weak-yen shopping. The 2019 EU-Japan EPA tariff reductions amplified these flows.
Should Japanese travelers to Europe lock in EUR now or wait?
Hard to time precisely, but consensus among Japanese banks (MUFG, SMBC, Mizuho) is that JPY is undervalued vs EUR by 10-15% on PPP and real-effective-exchange-rate measures. If you have a confirmed EUR-denominated expense (tuition, property, multi-month trip), gradual averaging via Wise JPY-to-EUR conversions over 3-6 months has historically been the lowest-regret approach. Avoid airport bureaus in Tokyo (Narita, Haneda mark up 2-3%) — Sony Bank, SMBC Prestia, and Wise all offer near-interbank for digitally-managed transfers.
