FAQ

Everything about forwarding, answered — from sign-up and shipping to customs and claims. Can't find it? Our LINE helpers are always online ♡

Getting started

Q What is package forwarding and how does it work?
We receive your parcels at our overseas warehouse, photo-log them, consolidate them into one box and ship it to your address in Taiwan. See the full flow on the shipping process page.
Q What do I need before my first shipment?
Just two things: 1. register a free account (phone number only); 2. complete the "EZ WAY" real-name verification app required for imports into Taiwan — see our EZ WAY guide.
Q Is membership free?
Completely free! Registration, your warehouse address, inbound photos and consolidation are all free — you only pay the actual international shipping fee. Sign up now.
Q Where do I find my warehouse address?
After logging in, open "Warehouse locations" in your member area to copy the full address including your member ID. You can also browse our warehouses first.
Q Which routes do you offer?
Japan, Australia and New Zealand to Taiwan, plus Taiwan to Hong Kong, Macau, the Philippines and Singapore. See Japan→TW, Australia→TW, NZ→TW, TW→HK.

Parcel check-in & storage

Q How long does check-in take after my parcel arrives?
Usually within 1-2 business days, with an arrival notification. You can also check "Arrived parcels" in your member area. Peak seasons may take slightly longer.
Q Why include my member ID? What if I forgot?
The member ID lets us match parcels instantly. If you forgot it, send the shop name, tracking number and contents to our LINE support and we will match it manually.
Q Can I see photos of my parcels?
Yes! Every parcel is photographed and weighed at check-in (dimensions currently measured at the Tokyo warehouse only). View them in your member area.
Q How long can parcels stay in the warehouse?
Free storage differs by route (e.g. up to 75 days for Japan) — see each route page. Overdue parcels incur storage fees.
Q Can I pre-declare parcels?
Yes, and we recommend it! Add tracking numbers under "Consignment" in your member area for faster check-in — see step 3 of the process.
Q Do you check quantity and quality for me?
We accept parcels based on intact outer packaging and cannot verify contents against your order. Compare the check-in photos, and see our terms of service.

Shipping fees & payment

Q How are fees calculated? What is volumetric weight?
We charge the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight (L×W×H cm ÷ 6000). Bulky-but-light boxes count as volume. Try the shipping calculator.
Q Can I estimate the fee before ordering?
Yes — the calculator works without logging in. The final fee is based on actual measurement after repacking.
Q What payment methods are supported?
Online payment via ECPay (credit cards and more) — safe and convenient. We dispatch right after payment.
Q When do I pay? Do I need to top up first?
No top-up needed. After you request shipment and we finish repacking, the system notifies you to pay under "Unpaid orders" — pay per shipment.
Q Any other fees?
Core services (receiving, photos, consolidation) are free. Possible extras: overdue storage, optional reinforcement material, and destination customs duties — all published transparently.
Q Who pays customs duty?
Unless a route is marked "duty included", import duties are paid by the recipient per regulations. Imports under NTD 2,000 dutiable value are generally tax-free (frequent importers excepted) — see the terms.

Consolidation

Q Does consolidation cost extra?
It is free! No consolidation or repacking fee — and it saves a lot on international shipping.
Q How much can I actually save?
Three separate parcels pay three first-weight charges; combined, you pay once plus incremental weight — typically 30-50% cheaper. See our Australia guide for examples.
Q How do I request consolidation?
In "Arrived parcels", tick the parcels you want shipped together and submit. We repack, measure, and notify you to pay — see step 5 of the process.
Q Can fragile items be reinforced?
Yes — note it when requesting shipment (material cost applies). Glass, ceramics, acrylic and disc cases should be reinforced; unreinforced fragile damage is not compensable per the terms.

Customs & EZ WAY

Q What is EZ WAY? Is it mandatory?
It is the customs-designated real-name verification app; every recipient in Taiwan must complete it for parcels to clear. Five minutes with our EZ WAY guide.
Q I did not get the EZ WAY push notification?
Check notification permissions, or open the app and review the pending list directly. Still stuck? Screenshot it to LINE support.
Q What is combined declaration? Why do others affect my parcel?
Import batches clear customs together: if any recipient in the batch has not completed verification or confirmation, customs holds the whole batch. Please confirm promptly — see the terms.
Q Can the recipient name be a nickname?
No — name and phone must exactly match your EZ WAY registration, or the parcel gets stuck. This is the most common cause of delays.
Q Receiving for family — whose EZ WAY?
Whoever is the recipient must use their own EZ WAY registration and confirmation.
Q My parcel is held by customs — what now?
Inspection and taxation are at customs' discretion. We will assist with communication and documents; resulting fees are borne by the recipient per the terms. Message us on LINE anytime.

Prohibited items

Q What cannot be shipped?
Four main groups: aviation dangerous goods (batteries, power banks, aerosols, perfume), legally prohibited items (tobacco, e-cigarettes, counterfeits, cash), quarantine items (meat, fresh fruit, seeds, dried flowers), and over-quota supplements. Full list in the terms.
Q Can I ship perfume, nail polish or sprays?
These are aviation dangerous goods and generally cannot fly. Some routes have special channels — ask LINE support before ordering.
Q Are supplements limited?
Yes: up to 12 bottles per kind and 36 total per shipment as personal use, per Taiwan customs. Details in the Australia guide.
Q Can I ship snacks and instant noodles?
Meat-free packaged food is mostly fine; anything containing meat (pork floss, meat-flavoured noodles, jerky) is quarantine-restricted. Unsure? Photo it to LINE support.
Q Products with built-in batteries?
Devices with built-in batteries (phones, laptops) can ship in small quantities on most routes; loose batteries and power banks never. Confirm with support first.

Route specifics

Q Japan to Taiwan — how long and how much?
Air freight about 3-5 days after dispatch; Osaka ships Mon/Tue/Thu, Tokyo Mon/Wed/Fri, duty-included and duty-excluded plans available. See the Japan route page or the calculator.
Q Can I shop in Japan without Japanese?
Absolutely — Amazon Japan has Chinese/English, and browser translation covers the rest. Full walkthrough in the Japan shopping guide.
Q Anything special about the Australia route?
Watch supplement quotas and the aerosol/perfume ban. Rates on the Australia route page; shopping list in the guide.
Q Do you ship from New Zealand?
Yes — milk powder, honey and supplements are favourites. See the New Zealand route page.
Q Where can I ship from Taiwan?
To Hong Kong, Macau, the Philippines and Singapore — gifts, food and daily goods all supported.

Claims & after-sales

Q My parcel is lost or damaged — what do I do?
Within 7 days of delivery, contact LINE support with a full unboxing video and photos. Compensation caps at 3× the shipping fee or item value, whichever is lower — see the terms.
Q Why film the unboxing?
A continuous video from sealed box to contents is the only way to establish where damage happened, and is required for any shortage/damage claim.
Q Received items differ from my order?
Missing or wrong items are the seller's dispatch issue — contact the shop. We can provide check-in photos and weight records as evidence.
Q No tracking updates — how do I check?
Track under "My orders" in the member area. If it stalls beyond the expected window, send the order number to LINE support and we will chase it.
Q Support hours? Fastest contact?
The LINE official account is fastest — bilingual helpers usually reply within minutes during business hours. All channels on the contact page.
