How to pay dues
You can pay dues at any of post office in Japan using the pre-printed
furikae yoshi (pay form) that we send to you. Just fill
out the form with your name, address and telephone number in “romaji”
(Roman alphabet letters; please don’t write in kanji) and
present it to the postal clerk with the proper amount. A small fee
will be added by the post office. You can also make a bank transfer
or send your dues via insured mail for cash (genkin kakitome).
See the Dues FAQs page for more information.
Once the transaction is confirmed by the AFWJ Treasurer, the representative
of your local district will be informed and will add your name to
the local newsletter list. |
