Tabitha on Japanese forms
Example full name: Tabitha Smith → タビサ・スミス (Western order, names separated by ・).
Most Japanese forms put the family name first: スミス タビサ. In a フリガナ (furigana) field write it in katakana; if the field says ふりがな use hiragana (すみす たびさ); some bank and card forms ask for half-width katakana (ｽﾐｽ ﾀﾋﾞｻ).
Japan has no official katakana spelling for foreign names. Once you use a spelling for a bank account, phone contract or employer, keep using the same one so your records match.
