How it works
All shipping documents must be completed carefully and accurately.
Required information includes details of the recovered item and the personal information.
If any information is missing or inconsistent, the documents may be rejected and may need to be resubmitted, which could cause delays.
All international shipping documents must be written in English.
(Sample documents created by our team are provided below for reference.)
This website is not affiliated with the Japan government. We are an independent service provider assisting international visitors in recovering lost belongings in Japan. While users may directly contact the relevant facilities or organizations on their own, our service acts as an optional support to simplify the recovery process by centralizing communication, overcoming language barriers, and ensuring smoother follow-up.
We charge a USD 10 investigation fee per inquiry. No additional fees apply unless an item is successfully located.
If recovery is approved, a service fee and shipping-related costs will apply. Customs duties and import taxes are not included. The customer is responsible for any customs charges, taxes, or arrangements required to receive the item in their country.
Further details can be found in the Pricing section of this website.
