Pokevault.com Shipping Information

Shipping Transit Time:

Pokevault offers several different shipping methods for your convenience. All packages are sent through the Japan Post Office or Fed Ex.

1) FEDEX INTERNATONAL PRIORITY - This is the absolute fastest way to ship a package that we offer. It comes with a tracking number. On average it usually takes about 3-5 days to arrive, but depends on the destination country and the time of year. Fed ex does NOT deliver to P.O. box addresses or military addresses. Some items may not be allowed due to speedy customs clearance (ex. some food items, etc).

2) EMS EXPRESS AIRMAIL - This is the fastest way to ship a package thru the Japan post office. It comes with a tracking number. On average it usually takes about 5-10 days to arrive, but depends on the destination country, how fast it clears customs, and the time of year.

3) REGISTERED AIRMAIL - This is the cheapest way to send a package thru the Japan post office. It comes with a tracking number. On average, it usually takes about 2-4 weeks to arrive, but depends on the destination country, how fast it clears customs, and the time of year. NOTE: For some countries including Australia, Canada, Mexico, the tracking number will only track on the Japanese website until the package leaves Japan

4) AIRMAIL (1KG. MINIMUM) - This option is for USA residents only. It is a cheaper alternative for larger sized items. The pricing starts at 1kg. minimum weight. It comes with a tracking number. On average, it usually takes about 2-4 weeks to arrive, but depends on how fast it clears customs and the time of year.
