Shipping & Delivery Policy (Japan)
Last updated:
This Shipping & Delivery Policy explains where we ship within Japan, expected delivery times, shipping fees, carriers, tracking, and address change rules for orders placed on bottlesmart.sbs.
1) Shipping area
- We ship to addresses within Japan.
- Remote areas (including some outlying islands such as Okinawa and other island regions) may have longer delivery times and/or limited delivery options depending on the carrier.
- Please provide a complete deliverable street address and a reachable phone number for the carrier.
2) Where orders ship from
Orders are generally dispatched from Japan (Tokyo, Japan) unless a different dispatch location is clearly stated on the product page or at checkout.
3) Shipping fees
- Shipping fees (and any applicable delivery surcharges) are displayed at checkout before you place your order. Fees may vary by delivery address, package size/weight, and selected shipping method.
- If an order requires special handling that cannot be priced at checkout, we will contact you for confirmation before proceeding where applicable.
4) Handling time & delivery estimates
- Handling time: typically 1–3 business days after order confirmation/payment completion (excluding weekends and Japanese public holidays).
- Estimated delivery after dispatch: typically 1–3 business days for many mainland areas; typically 3–7 business days for remote areas or islands.
- Delivery estimates are not guarantees and may be affected by weather, disasters, peak seasons, carrier capacity, incorrect address details, or other events outside our control.
5) Carriers, tracking & delivery confirmation
- We use reputable domestic carriers operating in Japan. The carrier may vary by destination and package type.
- If tracking is available for your shipment, we will provide tracking information by email and/or in your account area after dispatch.
- If a delivery attempt fails due to an incorrect address or missed receipt, the carrier may return the package. Re-delivery/reshipment costs may apply.
6) Address changes
- Contact us as soon as possible to request an address change. We can only try to update the address before dispatch.
- After dispatch, address changes may be subject to carrier rules and additional fees. We may ask you to contact the carrier directly.
7) Additional notes
