Benefits of Dメール
Exceptionally Low Cost
Small, lightweight parcels can be shipped from just a few hundred yen. Costs are significantly lower than EMS or airmail, making it easier to maintain margins even on low-unit-price goods.
Direct Dispatch from On-Site Warehouse
We operate our own warehouse inside a Japan Post facility, so parcels can be dispatched immediately without waiting for pickup. Even as an economy service, lead times to dispatch are kept to a minimum.
Ideal for Anime & Hobby Goods
Anime and game merchandise, books and magazines, figures, small apparel items, and small general goods — this route suits lightweight items shipped from Japan well, helping to reduce costs for small parcels that don't require tracking.
Main Use Cases
Cross-border e-commerce to China for anime and game merchandise, books and magazines, figures, and small apparel items; cost-first small-parcel shipping; and low-volume shipments of samples and novelties.
*For high-value items, urgent shipments, or parcels that require delivery tracking, please use a tracking- and compensation-enabled route such as EMS.
