Customs Regulations

 Latest update: April 2022 

Understanding the customs regulations of another country can be a daunting task; however, this section brings together all the information that European enterprises need to know. As long as the procedures listed in this section are abided by and the relevant documentation is submitted, the customs process in Japan should be a hassle-free experience. The existence of a Customs Counsellor system in Japan also means that foreign companies can easily access expert assistance on all matters relating to customs regulation.
