Use StringUtils.stripAccents of Apache Commons:
String output = StringUtils.stripAccents("VIRÚ");
System.out.println(output); // VIRU
Maven dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
<version>3.6</version>
</dependency>

It seems good but that method is not found here `The method stripAccents(String) is undefined for the type StringUtils` import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.StringUtils; – user9130953 Jun 25 '18 at 10:31

@user9130953 I'm not sure which `StringUtils` you are working with. If you are using Maven, you can add this. – xingbin Jun 25 '18 at 10:35

@user9130953 This method is only available in commons lang3 - you're probably using an old (2.x) version where the method isn't available. – Michael Berry Jun 25 '18 at 10:55
