A：

If you do not wish to make online payment from your “My Page” due to payment by your institution, please refer to the URL below and send the money to the Japan Post Bank account of JASID.

Note

• Please make sure that the name of the member or membership number can be recognized from the name of the payee and the remarks column.
• Please pay the bank transfer fee.
• If you wish to make a transfer to the Japan Post Bank account from a different name than the member’s name (e.g., affiliated institution), please contact the Secretariat to inform us of the expected date of payment.
• It takes about one week for the payment data to be reflected in the member’s page after the payment is made to Japan Post Bank (money transfer to Japan Post Bank is not immediately reflected in the member’s page).

Two methods of payment are available on “My Page”: credit card payment and online banking payment by bank check.

However, bank checks are only available in Japan and cannot accept money transfers from overseas.

For this reason, if you have selected bank check as your payment method when creating your invoice, please send money from overseas to JASID’s Japan Post Bank account, not to the bank check account number.

Please refer to the following page for instructions on how to send money to the Japan Post Bank account.

1. Invoice issued

You can issue your own invoices. For details on the procedure, please click on the link below.

• Invoice issuance procedure

If you are unable to use the PDF invoice, please contact the secretariat office.

As a general rule, payment of membership fees should be made online through your “My Page”. Please login to your “My Page” from the following URL to make your payment.

For details on the login procedure and interface of “My Page”, please click on the links below.

• Login for the first time
• Forgot your password?

A. Credit Card Payment

There are two types of credit card payment.

C. Direct payment from your institution

If you pay your membership fee to JASID from your institution directly, please note the following points before proceeding.

• Members who wish to pay your membership fee from your institutions must notify the following two items to the headquarters office in advance.
  – Name of the payee (your institution’s name)
  – Expected date of payment

• Please write either [member’s name] or [member’s 6-digit number] in the name of the payee or in the correspondence box. (We receive many deposits for which the subject is unknown. And the reconciliation process is taking an inordinate amount of time!)
• Please pay the transfer fee.
• Remittances to Japan Post Bank are not immediately reflected on your “My page”. It takes 1-2 weeks for the deposit information to be reflected on your “My page”.

---

D. Pay by postal transfer

Those who are not able to use the online payment system on “My Page” can continue to pay to the Japan Post Bank account. Please read the following and follow the procedure according to the payment method that suits you best.

Please note that using “Bank Check” for account transfers is more economical in the following respects.

• A Resona Bank account number is issued for each invoice, and a record of the payment is kept on the member’s My Page when the payment is completed.
• The payment fee is borne by the association.
• Receipts can be issued immediately.

For this reason, members who make transfers from their own accounts or ATMs are encouraged to use Bank Check.

2. Please download the invoice.
3. Please pay to the Japan Post Bank account number shown on the invoice.

Using the transfer form

1. Please select credit card as the payment method on your “My Page”
