Restrictions and Precautions for Sending Japanese Packages from Hong Kong

1. For valuables, such as computers, mobile phones, etc., it is easier and safer to send to Japan via Safe Plus(SG). For documents and food, shipping to Japan via LHK Express Plus (UPS) is faster and easier. International shipping charges are calculated based on the greater of the dimensional weight and the actual weight. Dimensional weight is calculated as length*width*height/5000, length, width and height are all in centimeters.

 

 

2. Japan cannot send illegal drugs. Offensive weapons such as knives, guns. Sprays, such as pepper spray and styling spray. flora and fauna. Precious metals such as diamonds and gold. Obscene materials, herbs, meat and dairy products. If you send plants, you need to apply for an import and export license between the two places.

 

3. Items such as food, medicine, liquid (cosmetics), and battery-containing products require a designated courier company to be shipped to Japan. Therefore, before submitting such an item, it is recommended that you contact customer service to provide more information about the item, such as item photos, etc., in order to provide a more feasible solution. Also, it is recommended that you allow more time as these items usually take longer to complete shipping and customs clearance

 

4. For transporting valuables/fragile items, we recommend that you install reinforced packaging to reduce the chance of damage, or you can leave it to us to assist with packaging.

 

 

5.Transportation insurance is recommended when shipping high-value items. Shipping insurance charges are based on the value of the item. You select *Requires Insurance* at the end of the order, and the system will calculate the insurance charge for your order immediately.
