1,000 US Dollar to Japanese Yen today
At the indicative interbank rate of 1 USD = 150 JPY, live, June 2026. Updated 2026-06-15.
What $1,000 USD is worth
Because Japan runs expensive, $1,000 buys one traveller only about a week of careful sightseeing — Tokyo and Kyoto hotel nights, daily meals and a shinkansen leg between them rather than a long stay.
What you'll actually receive after fees
For importers and visitors to Japan, after a typical 1–4% provider margin, $1,000 USD is worth roughly ¥144,000–¥148,500 JPY in practice — so compare the final amount, not just the mid-market rate.
What moves the USD/JPY rate
The Japanese yen is one of the world's most-traded currencies and a traditional safe-haven. The Bank of Japan long ran an ultra-loose policy, so the yen reacts strongly to the interest-rate gap with the US; it is quoted in whole yen, with no decimal places. The other way round, ¥1 JPY buys about $0.006667 USD today.
