Quick Jp-Eng translation of company name

I need an EXACT translation of this company name: 有限会社竹六

so far I have "bamboo six co., ltd." as in a limited company named "bamboo six." it needs to be exact because of a transfer of money i am making through my bank

Is this the company?

http://www.takeroku.co.jp/english/index.html

Their english name would be Takeroku Co., Ltd.

No, it isn't. I just need the translation.

All I really need to know is whether it is "bamboo six" or "six bamboo" or "six bamboos" (or something else).

Whoops, my mistake. That other company is Takeroku Shoten Co.,Ltd.

But 株式会社竹六 is still most likely Takeroku Co., Ltd. in English. You don't translate company names for bank transfers, but if you insist it would be something like Six Bamboo Company. I hope your bank is able to process that correctly.

I really don't know which one I should use. The lady at the bank didn't know either, but she insisted that it had to match exactly with the account name, which actually doesn't make sense because of the language barrier and the fact that there is no exact translation.

Do you know what to do in this situation? Apparently they run it through a machine or something so it isn't a human that checks it. Would "Takeroku Co., Ltd." probably pass at a Japanese bank, or the other one?

I mean the money is already at the bank, I just need to send a revision which will take another week so if it gets declined I'll have to do it again. I would use the name in Japanese but there's no way for the lady to get it in the computer with an English keyboard.

Hmm, that is difficult because the company could have their name listed in several different ways in roman characters for example Takeroku Co., Ltd. or Takeroku Kabushikigaisha. Do you have a contact at the company that can help you with that information? Also, what is this company? I'm not seeing a web presence that could lend any clues.

Maybe another poster has some more experience in this area?

The person that I talked to (at the business) doesn't know English, so he has to use a translator so everything I say and everything he says is butchered. So when he told me the account name it was butchered like "The limited company bamboo six" and then I asked him for the actual Japanese name so that I could get a consensus on the real translation. But I'm not sure he understood that the exact name is needed that would match the account name in English.

So can you translate that concept to Japanese and I can copy and paste it to him (email)? Something like this:

"My bank needs the EXACT name of the account. I'm confused because how can something in English match something in Japanese? Did the bank tell you that the English translation you gave me will work?"

You don't have to use the same words, just get the message across. Sorry if that's asking a lot.

The company is actually a store named Potential (http://potential.shop-pro.jp/). But "Potential" isn't the account name because that was what I put down originally and it got declined and now we have to revise it. So they said it is 有限会社竹六. If you google that you will get http://potentialblog.seesaa.net/archives/201112-1.html

At the end of the very first post at the top it says "有限会社 竹六 potential" if you can tell. So I know the name in Japanese is probably correct

In other words it would be easier if he figured it out by contacting his bank before I have the name revised. Do you get what I'm saying? I really don't know why this process is so difficult. I wish they just accepted paypal

Japanese bank account names are always written as a katakana reading.

I don't believe you need the translation of the account name, but the romaji version of that account name.

In case of 有限会社竹六 the katakana could be something like ﾕ)ﾀｹﾛｸ　which in romaji is yu)takeroku However, you would need to get the info from the company to be sure.

kcrackerg, can you explain exactly that but in Japanese so I can send it to the guy?

You need to ask for the "ofurikomisaki" "お振込先".


お振込先を教えてください。
ofurikomisaki wo oshiete kudasai.

that doesnt seem to convey it has to be in romaji or whatever. does it?

here is his response. Can you translate the japanese for the last time?

It is OK by "TAKEROKU"
”有）竹六”です。
ATMの画面表記だと、”ユ)タケロク”のはずです。

It is OK by ''TAKEROKU''
”有）竹六”です。
ATMの画面表記だと、”ユ)タケロク”のはずです。


ユ)タケロク : This is the account name. In romaji it reads ''yu)takeroku''.

ATMの画面表記だと、”ユ)タケロク”のはずです。
When using an ATM (in Japan) you would input ”ユ)タケロク”.

JD,

Are you sending money from Japan or a Japanese bank? If so, tell the banker to type ユ)タケロク in katakana.

If you're dealing with a bank that has no Japanese-speaking employees, tell the lady at the bank to type "TAKEROKU" (without the "" of course) in alphabet. That should get your money transfered.

I know what both the lady at the bank and the company is trying to say.

The lady is saying that it should be exactly the same as the name that it is registered by, and the company is saying that it is registered as TAKEROKU, if it must be in English alphabet and not Japanese letters.

The bank shouldn't type TAKKEROKU nor TEKEREKU moreover not BAMBOO whatever. That is what the lady is trying to say.

Hope this helps.

Right. Thanks. I already went to the bank and submitted it as "Takeroku Co., Ltd." Hopefully that works
