Shipping policy

Effective Date: November 8, 2025

Thank you for shopping with us! We are excited to ship our products from Japan to you in the United States. Please review our shipping policy below to understand how we process and ship your orders.

1. Order Processing Time

All orders are processed and shipped from our base in Japan within 1-3 business days after order confirmation.

  • We do not process or ship orders on weekends or Japanese national holidays.
  • During peak seasons or sales events, processing may be delayed by a few days. We appreciate your patience.
  • If there is a significant delay in shipping your order, we will notify you directly via email.

2. Shipping Rates & Estimated Delivery Times

We ship using reliable international express carriers (DHL or FedEx). Shipping costs are automatically calculated and displayed at checkout.

 Destination Carrier Shipping Rate Estimated Delivery Time
U.S. Mainland, D.C., Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico DHL / FedEx  $22.00

6 - 10 business days
Guam DHL / FedEx $40.00 10 - 14 business days
  • Guam: Please note that shipments to Guam have a higher rate and longer delivery time due to its remote location.
  • Disclaimer: Delivery times are estimates. We are not responsible for delays caused by customs processing, severe weather, or other unforeseen carrier-related issues.

3. 🚨 Important Notice on U.S. Customs and Duties

As of August 29, 2025, the U.S. government has suspended the $800 duty-free exemption (de minimis) for imports.

This means all shipments from Japan to the U.S., regardless of their value, may be subject to customs duties and import taxes.

  • Customer's Responsibility: All customs duties, import taxes, and any related brokerage fees are the sole responsibility of the customer (the importer).
  • Payment Process: You will likely be contacted by the shipping carrier (DHL/FedEx) or a customs broker to pay these fees before your package can be delivered.
  • We Cannot Estimate Fees: These fees are determined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection at the time of import. We cannot predict or control these charges.
  • More Information: For more details, please visit the U.S. Customs and Border Protection website.
  • Refusal to Pay Customs: If you refuse to pay customs duties and taxes upon delivery, your order will be either returned to us or destroyed by the carrier. In either case, you will be responsible for all associated costs, including the original shipping fee, any return shipping fees, and any duties or brokerage fees incurred. Any refund will be issued after deducting all of these costs. Please note that these costs often exceed the total value of the order, in which case no refund will be issued.

4. Shipping Confirmation & Tracking

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive a shipping confirmation email containing your tracking number. The tracking number typically becomes active within 24-48 hours as it is processed by the carrier.

If you have any questions about your tracking information, please feel free to contact us.

5. Address Restrictions (PO Boxes & Military Bases)

We ship via DHL and FedEx, which require a physical street address for delivery.

  • PO Boxes: We cannot ship to PO Box addresses.
  • Military Bases: We cannot ship to APO/FPO/DPO addresses.

Please provide a physical home or business address when placing your order. If a restricted address is entered, we will contact you to request an alternative, which may delay your order's processing.
