The formula
How to convert CAD to JPY
The maths behind a CAD to JPY conversion is one multiplication, no rounding tricks. On 18 August 2026 that rate is 114.88, so:
JPY = CAD × 114.88
Reverse the direction and you divide rather than multiply. Equivalently, one Japanese Yen is worth 0.0087044 Canadian Dollars.
The converter at the top of this page does both directions and updates as you type. Every result is recalculated on the server as well, so the number you see is the number that gets stored.
About the Canadian Dollar and the Japanese Yen
The Canadian Dollar (CAD, symbol C$) is the currency of Canada. The Japanese Yen (JPY, symbol ¥) is the currency of Japan.
Rates between these two shift with interest-rate decisions, trade figures and general market mood. These are reference rates rather than dealing rates. Treat them as the benchmark you measure an offer against.
Worked CAD to JPY examples
A price tag. Something marked C$50 comes to 5744.22 JPY. Round to 5,744 JPY for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. C$3,000 a month is 344653.38 JPY — useful when you are comparing a job offer across the two markets. Bear in mind the rate moves, so a figure agreed today will not be the figure paid out in six months.
Going the other way. If you are holding ¥1,000 and want to know what it buys in Canadian Dollars, that is 8.7044 CAD. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your C$500 would fetch roughly 55718.96 JPY instead of 57442.23 JPY. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.
As of 18 August 2026, 114.88 Japanese Yen buys what one Canadian Dollar does. That figure is pulled from a public reference feed once a day.
At today's rate, 100 Canadian Dollars come to 11488.45 JPY. The converter handles any amount, in either direction.
No. This is the mid-market reference rate — the midpoint between what buyers and sellers are quoting. Banks, card issuers and bureaus add a margin, so expect somewhat less than shown. Use it as a benchmark to judge whether an offer is fair.
