[Important] Information regarding FedEx shipments to the United States
The US customs system remains unclear due to the continued uncertainty surrounding the regulations of US Customs and authorities.
Japan Post has suspended acceptance of international mail (EMS and international parcels) destined for the US.
We continue to accept shipments to the US via FedEx.
Furthermore, since the duty-free treatment (de minimis system) that applied to imports under US$800 has been discontinued, all shipments destined for the US will be handled on a DDP (Deferred Payment of Duties) basis.
■ Regarding Tax Amounts for FedEx Shipments
When shipping with FedEx,
You will be required to pay the tax amount calculated based on past billing rates corresponding to the country of origin, along with the shipping cost, in advance.

Undervaluation (falsely low declaration) is illegal.
If any inconsistencies are found in the amount, we may adjust it to the appropriate price.
