Resumption of Delivery. Product Delivery to the USA 2026.

We have strived to deliver Kobaien products to our customers at the lowest possible price while ensuring maximum safety.

For now, what We are about to share is the best we can do. We are sorry. We kindly ask you to review the following points before placing your order: 

◆Customs Duties & Import Fees

U.S. Customs may charge import duties, taxes, and other import-related fees upon arrival.

These costs are not included in our shipping charges. Since 2025, all imports from Japan to the USA are subject to a 15% baseline tariff (a tax imposed by the government on imported goods), calculated on the item's value excluding shipping costs.

Recipients must pay this tariff along with any applicable state taxes, which vary by location and product category.

A tariff is a tax imposed by a government on goods imported from other countries.

For example, if you purchase a $10 item from a Japanese online store, you must pay an additional $1.50 to the U.S. government as import duty, which is 15% of the $10 purchase price. If you buy two $10 items, the import duty would be  = $3 ($10 x 15% x 2).

Important: If the required tariff and duties are not paid, U.S. Customs may seize or destroy the shipment. Please check applicable rates before ordering or refer to the official U.S. Customs and Border Protection website:

◆Delivery Inspection & Documentation

U.S. Customs has recently strengthened inspection procedures for UPS shipments, and some parcels may be temporarily held for document verification.

If UPS or U.S. Customs requests a Commercial Invoice, please contact us immediately — only we can issue this document. We will provide it promptly, and you should then communicate directly with UPS or U.S. Customs for clearance.

Handling through Japan may cause delays or additional storage fees. 

◆Shipping Fees

The shipping fee at checkout covers standard delivery. Additional charges may apply for heavy packages, and we will contact you before shipping if this occurs. 

◆Delivery Time

UPS (United Parcel Service) handles our package delivery.

In some areas, packages may be left unattended. Please note that delivery to the U.S. may take longer than usual. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
