How long will it take to receive my order?

*AUTUMN 2026 UPDATE* The ongoing fuel crisis has led to an increased delivery time (an additional 2 weeks in some cases) to some international locations.

PLEASE NOTE: The delivery times below are based on our experience shipping to these locations, but please keep in mind theyโ€™re just estimates. Where youโ€™re located within each country can make a difference as well.

If you need to receive your order before your Japan trip please make sure to leave lots of time for it to arrive.

Japan Post is very efficient, so parcels usually leave Japan within a couple days. After that, delivery time depends on your local postal service and any customs processing along the way.
