Due to this chance, I will be participating in an overseas group exhibition for the first time.
After receiving a valuable opportunity,
The process from shipping works overseas to arriving at the destination
I would like to write this down here as my own memorandum.
In addition to the personal purposes mentioned above,
■I want to present my work overseas
■Looking for customers overseas
■Working on cross-border e-commerce
I will share information with others and update the content from time to time based on my own experiences.
Everyone who reads this blog
We hope to provide useful articles that are directly connected to your goals and objectives.
I want to start writing with hope and purpose.
However, there is something I would like to disclaim first.
I have only used Japan Post's EMS to send packages overseas .
The reason is because I wanted to include the size of the baggage + freight and a compensation guarantee system .
I haven't used a courier yet
I cannot respond to the comparison with EMS.
note that
3. Regarding history information after shipping.
After successfully packing and creating an invoice,
I will take the package and invoice and send it to the nearby post office.
✓For those who created it on a smartphone
Touch the "Yu-appli" installed at the post office to print the label.
✓ Those who created it on a computer
Print the invoice and sign with your own handwriting.
Separate the parts that need to be separated
Tell the receptionist that it is EMS (International Express Mail)
We will measure your luggage and add freight, compensation insurance (additional amount if necessary), and registered mail (optional).
Pay the total amount of freight + compensation insurance + registered mail
Your shipment is now complete.
*What is registered mail?
A record of the acceptance and delivery status of the package.
In the unlikely event that your package is damaged or does not arrive
This is a service that compensates for actual losses within a certain amount of compensation.
Please refer to the Japan Post website for details.
The country to which I sent the package this time is
Portugal is an EU member country
The package was shipped on January 24, 2024 and arrived on February 27.
It took a month and three days
What kind of process did the baggage go through during that time?
with postal tracking service
I checked using the individual tracking number.
Here is the current history information
👇
There are words circled in yellow.
This is the part I searched on the internet because I didn't know what was going on.
I later confirmed this with a staff member over the phone, so I would like to explain the three phrases to the best of my understanding.
I hope this will be helpful for those who are having trouble with the delivery status.
1. Present to customs for customs inspection (approximately 25 days, 1/29 to 2/23)
This refers to inspections conducted by customs officials at customs branch offices.
What we are inspecting is confirming that there are no discrepancies between the contents of the invoice and the package.
This is an examination through X-rays.
In some cases, packages may be opened.
(There was no opening of the package this time)
♥♥♥
2. Received from customs (approximately 3 days from 2/23 to 2/26 )
This means that the contents have been checked and handed over from customs to the post office.
♥♥♥
3. Transfer to other stations (approximately 3 days 2/23~2/26 )
It means that it was moved from the post office to a further local post office.
♥♥♥
4. Arrive at the sorting station (approximately 1 day 2/26~2/27)
means it has arrived at the nearest post office
Your package will arrive soon
The above is about the wording of historical information.
I think the number of days the package will be stuck at customs varies depending on the delivery situation.
All you can do is wait for it to arrive, keeping in mind that it will take some time.
Once the package leaves the domestic post office, customs and other countries' mailing companies will intervene.
You may not be able to understand the details
Therefore, add registered mail to track the package and provide historical information.
Please check from time to time
If you have any questions, please contact the post office staff.
I will give you detailed information to the best of my ability.
Please consult with us
