For Chinese bank cards, each card can withdraw cash in Japan equivalent to 100,000 yuan per year, so if you have a large purchase, it is better to swipe the card directly, which is more convenient.
There are two main types of Japanese bank cards: Cashcard (Cashcard - domestic debit card) and Credit Card (credit card). When applying for a debit card, the other party will also give you a general account (passbook), which is bound to the card, and the transaction will be recorded in detail.
Passbook + card is still popular in Japan. Japanese passbooks can also be printed in ATM machines, and they will be replaced after one is used up, so passbooks are quite useful in Japan.
Since many banks in Japan, such as りそな, Mitsui Sumitomo, etc., require half a year of entry before they can apply for it, so for those who have just arrived in Japan, they have almost no choice but to apply for a Japan Post bank card ( ゆうちょBank).
Postal Bank is the bank with the lowest application threshold for foreign students. However, if you have been in Japan for less than six months, you cannot receive transfers from or send money to China.
Only one postal card is sometimes not enough. When working part-time, you may also need bank cards from other companies. If you have been in Japan for less than half a year and only have a post office card, the other party will get a postal card first and then urge you to apply for one as soon as possible after half a year.
