Back to news... 20 December 2024 Whats the best way to get a cheap price parcel to Japan?
When you are preparing to ship your items to Japan, it is good to know when surcharges will be applied.
If you keep your individual parcel sizes within the parameters below, you will ensure that you get the cheapest parcel price to Japan.
1. Do not exceed 25 kilos in weight
2. Do not exceed 100cm on the longest side
3. Do not exceed 76cm on 2 sides
4. Do not exceed 280cm in girth (girth = L+ (2xw) + (2x H))
For example, one 30 kilos parcel 30 x 40 x 50cm costs around 20% more than if split in to, two 15 kilo 30 x 40 x 25cm parcels, so it is worth staying within the dimensions stated whenever possible.
