UPDATE: April 22, 2020
Even after package acceptance for some countries such as Australia, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, Italy, etc got suspended by Japan Post, we were still able to ship to the US, Canada, UK, France, etc where many of our customers live. However very sadly packages to the US by AIR will now also be suspended until further notice. We are still waiting for the official announcement and details by the Japan Post, but now we are only able to ship orders by SEA which is the only way possible to ship packages internationally to most countries from Japan at this time due to COVID-19.
It will take much longer -2 to 3 months- by Sea/Surface mail, but postage will be much less than Air or EMS. If you are happy to wait, we welcome orders!
We will start offering shipments by AIR as soon as service will be available again with Japan Post.
