Blackship Service Interruptions

Special requests to Customer Support that require inspecting or handling packages will only be handled once a week on Tuesdays (requests in "Notes" during shipping should not be affected).
Office hours may drift due to staff availability and staggered working hours (so your customer support representative may start later and leave later than usual)
Packages stuck due to missing mailbox numbers will be processed once a week on Tuesdays. Please ensure your address is correct when ordering online!

FedEx Delays

FedEx has ceased handling Economy shipments. We have temporarily removed FedEx from our system. For anyone who already paid, we are doing our best to find alternatives to ship your items.

FedEx is unavailable for ALL countries.

DHL Delays

DHL has reported general delays of up to 4 additional business days to most countries with some services halted to Wuhan, India and Libya.

However, there may be delays with shipping DHL from our warehouse due to restricted working hours.

DHL is currently available.

Japan Post Delays

Japan Post has stopped all shipments to some countries. Before ordering, please be aware that we may not be able to ship out your package for some time, even if shipping is currently listed as available. We expect shipping availability to change daily.

To check available shipping methods for your country please see our shipping status page.

We expect that all shipments will take longer than usual to arrive, please allow an additional 1-4 weeks for delivery depending on your selected method.

Shipping to USA is heavily congested and long delays are expected, even for EMS. Items will not arrive during the normal estimated delivery window. New shipments to USA are no longer available until further notice.

Tracking will not update for long periods while your package waits to ship out of Japan.
