Sending a thoughtful Japanese Gift to someone special should be a joyful experience. To ensure smooth delivery and address common queries, we’ve compiled answers to frequently asked questions regarding your order.
Price Information and Invoices
Will the price tag be removed from the product?
Rest assured, we do not include price tags or invoices displaying prices within the gift box. However, for international shipments exceeding USD 1,800, particularly those handled by DHL or EMS, customs regulations may necessitate the inclusion of an invoice attached to the shipping slip, which might list the price.
Furoshiki Gift Wrapping Options
Can each item be individually wrapped in furoshiki?
Complimentary furoshiki wrapping is provided for complete order units as a special touch for your japanese gift. If you desire individual wrapping for each item, we kindly request you to purchase furoshiki cloths separately. We offer a beautiful selection of furoshiki cloths perfect for this purpose. Furoshiki wrapping is surprisingly simple and adds an elegant Japanese flair to your present. For a helpful guide, please see our furoshiki wrapping tutorial. In Japanese tradition, knots symbolize the thoughts and care of the giver. As you tie the furoshiki, infuse it with your well wishes for the recipient of your japanese gift.
Delivery Date Specificity
Is it possible to specify a delivery date for my japanese gift?
Due to ongoing complexities within the global logistics network, unfortunately, international shipping companies are unable to guarantee specific delivery dates at this time. If precise timing is crucial for your japanese gift delivery, the most dependable approach is to personally receive the item first. You can then utilize a local carrier that offers date-specific delivery services for the final leg of the journey. This also presents a wonderful opportunity to personalize your japanese gift further by including a handwritten message card, making it an even more cherished and memorable present.
Import Duties for Gifts
Can arrangements be made to avoid import duties for the recipient since this is a gift?
We regret to inform you that we are unable to intervene with import duties. Any import duties, taxes, or fees levied by the destination country are the responsibility of the recipient and are typically collected upon import. To potentially avoid these charges for your recipient when sending a japanese gift, we suggest having the package shipped to your own address. This allows you to manage any import duties directly before personally gifting the item. Detailed information regarding our shipping policies can be found here. We hope this clarifies the process for sending your thoughtful japanese gift.
