Another smart option is to open a multi-currency account which lets you hold a selection of major world currencies, often including Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB) and Japanese Yen. This can be helpful if you transact internationally often, live overseas, receive payments from abroad, invest in diverse markets or even if you simply love to shop online with international retailers. Because you can hold a balance in the currency or currencies of your choice, there's no need to convert from one currency to another unnecessarily - you can wait until exchange rates are favorable to avoid losing out.

How to buy Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB) with Japanese Yen?

You'll be able to exchange Japanese Yen to Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB) in the same way as you'd exchange Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB) to Japanese Yen. If you have Japanese Yen in your pocket in cash, you can take them along to a currency exchange service and ask if they'll buy back in exchange for Japanese Yen. Be aware that the exchange rate might not be great - so coming back from a trip with as little foreign cash as possible is a smart plan.

Where to exchange CNY to JPY?

You can exchange currencies in person at a currency exchange store, bank or airport, or use an online service instead. It's helpful to know that in person currency exchange options can offer a pretty poor deal overall, as exchange rates commonly include a markup - an extra fee. If you're exchanging somewhere with little local competition - like at an airport or hotel, for example - the chances are that the rate you get will be even worse.

A good alternative is to open a multi-currency account which lets you hold and exchange currencies digitally - and if you pick an account which also offers a linked debit card, you can make ATM withdrawals at home and abroad whenever you need cash. Digital specialist services can often offer a better exchange rate with lower overall costs compared to using your bank or exchanging cash in person - plus they're intuitive to use and let you manage your money with just your phone.
