Kansai Airport Currency Exchange, ATMs and Getting Cash

In short

Kansai Airport has many options available 24 hours. Automatic foreign currency exchange machines run 24 hours at 6 places across Terminals 1 and 2, and Seven Bank, Lawson Bank and AEON Bank ATMs are also available 24 hours. Getting cash and foreign currency is easy even for early-morning or late-night flights.

On the other hand, the staffed exchange counters open at the earliest in the 5:00 hour and close at the latest in the 24:00 hour (just after midnight); none is open 24 hours. The only bank counter service is at MUFG Bank on Terminal 1, 2F (weekdays 9:00–15:00).
