Shipping & Duties

Shipping from Japan, clearly explained.

Learn how DiamondBaseJP handles Canada checkout, U.S. inquiry orders, estimated delivery times, duties, taxes, and import-related charges before you order.

Current Shipping Status

Canada checkout is available now. U.S. orders are currently available by inquiry only while we test DDP shipping with Japan Post and Zonos Prepay.

If you are located in the United States, please contact DBJP before ordering so we can confirm shipping availability, estimated duties, import-related charges, and total cost.

Shipping Destinations

Where we currently ship.

DBJP is currently focused on Canada checkout, with U.S. orders handled manually by inquiry during our DDP shipping test.

Available Now

Canada Orders

Canada checkout is currently available on the website. Shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on destination, package weight, and available shipping settings.

DBJP currently ships Canada orders using Japan Post International ePacket Light or another available shipping method when appropriate.

Inquiry Only

United States Orders

U.S. orders are currently available by inquiry only while we test DDP shipping with Japan Post and Zonos Prepay.

U.S. customers may not be able to complete standard checkout directly on the website. Please contact DBJP before ordering.

Delivery Estimates

How long shipping may take.

Delivery estimates can vary depending on order processing, supplier availability, customs processing, postal delays, destination, weather, holidays, and carrier conditions.

Canada

Estimated Delivery

Canada orders typically take around 14–21 business days after the order has been processed and shipped.

Processing

Before Shipment

Processing time may vary depending on product availability, supplier stock, size, color, and whether embroidery or customization is requested.

U.S.

Inquiry Orders

U.S. inquiry orders may require additional time because shipping availability, DDP processing, duties, and total cost must be confirmed before payment and shipment.

Duties & Import Fees

Import-related charges may apply.

International orders may be subject to duties, taxes, customs fees, import charges, carrier-related fees, or other import-related costs.

Customer Responsibility

Canada Duties & Taxes

For Canada orders, duties, taxes, customs fees, or import-related charges may be collected by customs, postal services, or carriers upon delivery or during customs clearance.

These charges are the customer’s responsibility unless otherwise stated at checkout or in a confirmed quote from DBJP.

DDP Test

U.S. Duties & Prepaid Charges

For U.S. inquiry orders, DBJP may estimate and collect prepaid duties and import-related charges before shipment when required for DDP shipping.

Any U.S. quote is based on the product information, destination, shipping method, and import-related estimates available at that time.

U.S. Inquiry Flow

How U.S. orders are handled.

Because U.S. shipping may require DDP handling and duty prepayment, U.S. orders are reviewed individually before payment.

Contact DBJP before ordering

Send us the product link, size, color, embroidery request if any, and your shipping ZIP code and state.

We confirm availability and estimated cost

DBJP reviews product availability, estimated shipping cost, duties, import-related charges, and handling adjustments where applicable.

We send a custom invoice

If the order can be fulfilled, DBJP may send a custom invoice or Shopify Draft Order. Full payment is required before sourcing, embroidery, DDP processing, or shipment begins.

We prepare and ship the order

Once the item is ready and required DDP processing is completed, DBJP ships the order using the available shipping method.

For U.S. Orders

Thinking about ordering from the United States?

U.S. orders are currently handled by inquiry only while we test DDP shipping with Japan Post and Zonos Prepay.

Please contact DBJP before ordering and include the product link, preferred size and color, embroidery request if any, and your shipping ZIP code and state.

Before You Order

Please review these points carefully.

Address

Use a complete address

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address. Incorrect or incomplete address information may cause delays, returns, or additional shipping charges.

Embroidery

Customization may add time

Embroidered, customized, special-order, or sourced-on-request items may require additional processing time and may have stricter cancellation limits.

Delays

Delivery dates are estimates

Customs processing, postal conditions, weather, holidays, carrier delays, and import inspections may affect delivery timing.
