Delivery times are for reference only and may vary. Brazil and the Philippines are destinations where extended delays may occur, and shipping delays are not eligible for compensation.
Fees
① International Shipping Fee
International shipping fees are calculated based on whichever is greater: the parcel's actual weight or volumetric weight.
Volumetric weight is calculated as follows:
Volumetric weight (kg) = Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm) ÷ 5,000
You can estimate the shipping fee using the 【International Shipping Calculator】.
Before dispatch, the system will estimate the parcel size based on the dimensions recorded upon arrival at the warehouse and the required packing materials. If the final shipping fee is lower than the amount paid, the difference will be refunded to the original payment account. No additional payment will be collected if the final shipping fee is higher.
② Shipping Handling Fee — JPY 150–2,200
A dispatch handling fee of JPY 150–2,200 applies. The fee is calculated based on the parcel's actual weight or volumetric weight. Please refer to the amount displayed when selecting a shipping method.

If taxes must be paid or customs documents must be submitted, the recipient must complete the required procedures and bear the related costs in accordance with instructions from the local customs authorities or carrier.
If a parcel is held, returned, or incurs additional charges because the recipient fails to pay taxes on time, submits the required documents, or cooperates with customs clearance, the user will be responsible for all resulting costs and liabilities. Delays caused by customs procedures or pending tax payments are not eligible for compensation.
Duty-free thresholds, tax rates, and customs clearance policies vary by destination and may change at any time. Please refer to the latest notice issued by the local customs authorities or carrier.
