Japan Landed Cost helps people outside Japan estimate the true, all-in cost of buying from Japanese sites (Rakuten, Mercari, Yahoo Auctions, Amazon.co.jp and brand shops) through a proxy service, and understand how to read Japanese listings.
Why a landed-cost calculator
The sticker price is only part of what you pay. Proxy fees, domestic shipping inside Japan, international shipping, and your own country's duty and tax all add up. Our calculator brings these together so you can compare options before you commit.
How we handle money and accuracy
- All fees, shipping rates, duties and taxes are estimates. We show a last-verified date and label figures as estimates.
- Duty and tax rules change and vary by product and country. We link you to your customs authority and ask you to verify.
- We do not give tax advice.
Affiliate disclosure
This site uses affiliate links. When we mention a product or shop, we may show an "In Japan" button (Amazon.co.jp or Rakuten) and an "Outside Japan" button (a proxy service such as Buyee, ZenMarket or Neokyo). If you buy through these links we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This does not change our estimates or which services we describe.
