Appliances Shipping Cost from Tokyo to Kingston

Shipping from Japan to USA pricing At about $3 per kilo, standard air freight is the cheapest option for shipments between about 150 kilos and 500 kg. Very light shipments for their size might be charged on dimensional weight, rather than actual weight.

Shipping from Japan to the US takes anywhere from 1-5 days for express air freight (like DHL/FedEx) to 2-4 weeks for standard airmail, and even longer (1-3 months) for the cheapest surface mail, with ocean freight falling in the middle at 2-4 weeks to the West Coast and longer for the East Coast, heavily depending on the chosen carrier and customs clearance.

Current Shipping Options & Additional Fees With the exemption gone, all packages to the U.S., no matter their value or size, now require full customs documentation and processing. Starting from Wednesday, August 27, 2025, Japan Post has announced a temporary suspension of delivery services to the United States.
