Japan Shopping Service

With our Japan Shopping Service (short JSS) you can easily order almost any goods directly from Japan and furthermore you can do it in English so that you don't have to worry about the Japanese language.

How does it work?

Very easy. You simply choose, depending on the product you are looking for, or the information you have, between or regular "JSS" or the extended "JSS PLUS" and let us know what you are looking for. If the product is available and also mailable, we will give you a quote as soon as possible.

What does it cost?

The price offer is usually free of charge if it is about sweets, snacks or food. In case of merchandise or other things it is free of charge if you provide us a direct link to the product at a shop where we can buy it for you.
In all other cases, where we have to research about the requested item, you need to use the paid service "JSS PLUS" where a service charge of JPY 1.000 will apply for our research.

The quoted price for the product you are looking for will be calculated as follows:

  • Sales price of the product
  • National shipping cost (if applies)
  • Shipping cost to your country based on weight of product and packaging for shipping overseas
  • A commission of  10 to 20 percent (min. JPY 1,500)

What can be bought and sent?

Besides some exceptions (e.g. pornography), almost everything that is sold in Japan can be organized and sent to you. However there are some limitations of sending goods by postal service such as:

  • Items with batteries*
  • Alcoholic drinks or any liquid with more than Vol.24%
  • Cosmetics
  • etc.

A detailed list with items that can't be sent by postal service is available on the website of the Japanese Post: Nonmailable Items

*In some cases it is possible to send items with batteries if they match the requirements of the postal service. However, even if the item fulfill the conditions for sending by mail it depends on the destination country if they accept such items or not. An information sheet with closer details as well as as list of countries that accept sending items containing batteries can be found on the website of the Japanese Post: Sending Batteries
