Yen to AUD: What is the Japanese yen to Australian dollar exchange rate?

The yen to AUD exchange rate is 0.012. That means 10,000 Japanese yen is worth 120 Australian dollars. But the exchange rates have fluctuated in the last ten years.

Japan isn’t top of the list when it comes to stopovers on the way to Australia. Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong tend to be more convenient and cheaper. But it is perfectly possible to build a side-jaunt to Japan into an Australian holiday. Especially as partner airlines British Airways and Qantas both fly into Tokyo from the UK and Australia respectively.

If you do stop in Japan on the way to Australia, then there’s a decent chance you’ll end up with plenty of spare yen when you land in Sydney or Melbourne. It is, therefore, helpful to know how many Australian dollars you can get for your yen.

Yen to AUD exchange rate

The answer is not many. The yen to AUD exchange rate at time of writing in June 2021 is 0.012. One yen will get you an Australian cent. 100 yen will get you AU$1.20. 10,000 yen equates to 120 Australian dollars.

Looking at historical exchange rate data, this current rate is about average. But there have been some significant fluctuations over the last ten years.

The weakest point for the Australian dollar was in March 2020, when the yen to AUD exchange rate was 0.016. 10,000 yen was worth 160 dollars, rather than 120 dollars back then.

But the fluctuations in the Japanese yen to Australian dollar exchange rate have gone the other way, too. In April 2013, the yen to AUD exchange rate was just under 0.010. Then, 10,000 yen would have bought under $100.
