Shipping from the US to Japan: A Simple Guide
Shopping from US retailers opens up a world of possibilities like limited-edition sneakers, the latest tech gadgets, popular American brands, and much more. Unfortunately, no matter how advanced we’re becoming, if you're living abroad, getting your favorite items shipped directly to your door isn't always straightforward. Many US stores don’t offer international shipping, and those that do can charge sky-high rates and/or take weeks to deliver.
And that’s where MyUS comes in.
This international shipping guide for Japan will show you how easy it is to buy from US stores even if they don’t normally ship overseas, and how to get your packages sent quickly and affordably.
Step 1: Sign Up for a MyUS Membership
To start, you’ll need a MyUS membership. When you join, you’ll receive a personal US shipping address (at MyUS’ secure warehouse in Florida). This address allows you to shop from US stores as if you lived in the States even if you're halfway across the world.
It’s quick to sign up, and you can choose from different membership options depending on how often you shop. And yes, you can get a free trial and check how you like our services at no cost!
Tip: Budget-conscious shoppers in Japan often choose the Single Package option if they’re only shipping occasionally.
Step 2: Start Shopping from US Stores
Then comes the exciting part! Once you have your US address, you can shop from thousands of American retailers online, like Amazon.com, Walmart, Sephora, Nike, and more.
Bonus: You get a FREE UK address included!
At checkout, enter the MyUS address as your shipping destination. MyUS will receive your orders, notify you when they arrive, and store them safely until you're ready to ship.
Why this works: Many US websites don’t ship internationally, but with MyUS, you can still buy from US stores in Japan without limitations.
Step 3: Consolidate & Ship Your Packages
Shopping from multiple stores? Not a big deal! MyUS offers a free package consolidation service, meaning we can combine your purchases into one box to save on shipping costs. This is ideal if you’re a shopper looking to keep your international shipping to Japan affordable.
Once you’re ready, just log into your account, choose your preferred carrier (like FedEx, DHL, UPS, or Aramex), and ship your package directly to your address in Japan.
Tip: MyUS offers fast delivery to Japan, and most packages arrive in just 2–4 days!
Step 4: Track and Receive Your Package
After shipping, you can track your package in real time using your MyUS dashboard. You’ll receive email updates too, so you’ll always know where your items are!
When your delivery arrives, there are no surprises. MyUS helps you manage customs paperwork upfront, and members can even view estimated duties and taxes before shipping.
Smooth delivery, minimal hassle. That’s what makes package forwarding to Japan through MyUS so convenient!
