I'm not sure I've enough time (< 2 weeks) for the card to arrive.
Could I make transfers between US and JP w/ Citi? I've heard Citibank JP and Citibank US are seperate corporate entities, so would I still have to pay fees?
Also, on a very loosely related note, since I'll be without an account for at least a few days, how much $$ do you think I should take with me? Between just the hanko and the train from narita, I'll already be out ~$100...
Thanks for the advice guys.
