? FAQs

Can I send heavy items to Japan?

Absolutely - through our website you are able to book a shipment of up to 300kg in weight to Japan. We may even be able to ship heavier items should you need to, but we will have to arrange this for you, so please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

How long does it take to deliver parcels to Japan?

Our quickest service usually only takes 2-4 days to reach its destination in Japan. If you do not require such an expedited service, our more economical services start from just £34.87!

Can I ship meat to Japan?

The only way you can ship meat to Japan is upon a grant of an inspection certificate. Please see this page for details on how to obtain one of these certificates should you need it.

Are medicines prohibited when sending to Japan?

Yes, narcotics and other pharmaceuticals are also prohibited from import into the country. For a more comprehensive list of what cannot be sent to Japan, please see our Customs & Duty section below.

Customs & Duty When Sending To Japan

The items that Japan prohibits from being imported into the country are largely those you would expect to find on any country's list of restricted goods, such as weapons, ammunition and illicit drugs.

Other items you cannot send include counterfeit money, or even just imitation coins, bank notes and credit cards. Also be aware that books or creative works that may "harm public safety or morals" (including pornography) may not be imported either.

However, it must never be assumed that what you wish to send is permitted without restriction so we always recommend checking Japan Customs' list of goods with prohibitions, controls and restrictions before booking with us.
