PACKING TIPS
Packing a parcel for successful delivery to Japan
If you could only do one thing to ensure your parcel will be delivered to Japan safe and sound, this thing would be to use correct packaging. To do that, we recommend using sturdy cardboard boxes as the outer packaging and following the steps below for preparing it:
- Choose a box that is slightly bigger than the item
- Wrap each item individually with bubble wrap
- Place everything in the box and fill the voids with cushioning materials
- Use tape to close and secure the box
Managing customs when sending a parcel to Japan
Whenever you send a package across international trade borders to Japan, you will need to prepare necessary customs documentation such as a proforma or commercial invoice. Depending on the purpose of your shipment or the goods themselves, you may be required to provide additional documentation for the customs authorities when arranging parcel delivery to Japan.
