When foreign currency funds are remitted from overseas, they might be exchanged into another currency at the discretion of the banks involved in the remittance (intermediary banks).
To reduce this possibility, ask the remitter to write "Do not convert" or "No Exchange" in the additional notes/free comment section. Please note that Sony Bank cannot guarantee that the foreign currency remittance will arrive in the currency that was remitted.
