To provide continued service for our international customers, we are updating our shipping method.
Japan Post will officially discontinue the Small Air Packet service, effective January 1, 2026. As a result, we are now transitioning to International ePacket Light as our primary replacement.
This change offers several key benefits:
-
Tracking: Monitor your package from dispatch to delivery.
-
Wide Global Reach: Available to over 40 destinations worldwide.
-
Optimized for Small Packages: Ideal for shipments up to 2kg and sent via airmail.
-
Mailbox Delivery: No signature is required for receipt.
Critical Update on Insurance:
Our previous Small Air Packet service included insurance coverage up to JPY 6,000. International ePacket Light does not include any insurance.
Therefore, this service is recommended only for lower-value orders, and you choose it at your own risk. For higher-value items, we strongly recommend selecting a shipping method with full insurance coverage.
We are making this change to ensure we can continue offering an affordable, trackable shipping option following Japan Post's policy update. Our commitment to serving our global community remains our top priority.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of BanzaiHobby!
