Send parcel to Japan: 6 tips and advice
Sending packages to Japan does not have to be difficult if you know what rules apply. However, there are a few important things to keep in mind when sending parcels to a country that is not part of the European Union.
Secure delivery with good packaging
No matter which country you are sending to, the package will be exposed to stress during transportation, so it is important to package the contents properly. Use sturdy cardboard boxes and fill any space with material that protects against impacts and pressure.
Prepare thoroughly before you send
Before sending your parcel, it is important that you are aware of rules and regulations for what is allowed to be shipped. At Shiplink, you will receive professional advice and guidance for your shipment.
Goods must pass through customs
If you are shipping to a country outside the EU, such as Japan, China, or Vietnam, you need to prepare a commercial invoice or proforma invoice invoice for customs clearance.
EORI number for export outside the EU
Japan is not an EU country. If you are exporting to a country outside the EU, you need to apply for an EORI number through The Swedish Customs. An EORI number is used to identify you as an exporter during customs clearance.
How pickup of your package works
When your shipment is to be picked up, the carrier's driver will come to your company address. Make sure it is manned, with good signage and clear directions on site to facilitate the pickup.
Box addresses incur costs
A transporter cannot deliver to a PO Box or post box. If you provide a box address, an address change will be required, which may involve manual work for the freight company and extra costs for you.
