Shipping During Covid-19

Here you will find important announcements regarding shipping availability, delays, and restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic.

April 28, 2023

GOLDEN WEEK HOLIDAY IN JAPAN! Every year in early May, Japan has a group of National Holidays where most companies take a break from their businesses. Japan Post will be closed from May 3 - 7 so there will be a short delay in shipping out parcels if you order between May 1 - 5. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Covid 19 is FINALLY being downgraded in Japan to the level of seasonal influenza. This could indicate a return to more shipping options in the near future. When international travel increases there are more flights available for postage. We hope that Airmail is reinstated to many countries sooner than later. There have been no official announcements but we are all crossing our fingers. For now, we do offer both Surface Mail and EMS (express) to most countries. 

napaJapan is open 365 days a year and continue to list new releases weekly. We ship out 5 days a week (except on national holidays and weekends) so your parcel gets handled promptly. There are currently delays in the international postal system and we can only give delivery time estimates. 

All of the past Covid-19 Shipping Updates can be found at this LINK in chronological order. Thank you.
