U.S. CUSTOMERS: Now all customs duties and import taxes included at checkout. No surprise fees. What you see is what you pay.

From May 8, 2026 (JST)

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR U.S. CUSTOMERS

Over the past year, ordering directly from Japan came with customs duties and carrier fees collected at delivery that you couldn't predict at checkout. Also, US tariff policy shifted significantly during this time, increasing the friction.

So we've been working on a fix.

As of May 8, 2026, all orders shipped to the United States now go out on a DDP (Delivered Duties Paid) basis.

That means import duties and taxes are calculated and included in the price at checkout. The total you see when you place an order is the total you pay.

We appreciate your patience during this time. And let us know any questions you may have!
