international postal money order - im 16, and i would like to send money to japan. i've never done it before,

Question

so i would like to know some stuff.

is there a age required to do IPMO? I'm from Canada - trying to send aprox 150 dollars to a Japnese company. I'm trying to purchase a product from there and they accepts IMPO.

I know there's fees and stuff, but im 16, never done this before, and want to know some more info about this - if you know.

so like, do i just walk into a postal office and ask for a IPMO to japan?

Answer 1

AGE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MONEY ORDERS.

Answer 2

Hi, I am not sure how it works in Canada, but it must be almost the same as in Japan. All you need is your ID. Yes you just walk into a post office ask for an application form, fill it out, and pay. That's as simple as that, but post office will take handling charge about $20 to $25. It's a lot for $150 purchase. Also, in case of any trouble (missing or invalid or whatever), it is very strenuous to recover it. In my opinion, it is easier and better to ask your parents to purchase that products with their credit card. Good luck!
