  • Consumable Items (e.g., food, beverages, cosmetics, and drugs):
    These items must remain unopened until you leave Japan. Consumption or use in Japan is not allowed.

  • General Items (e.g., clothing, shoes, watches):
    You can use these items in Japan.

Important: You must take all tax-free purchases out of Japan. If you do not have them with you when departing, you will be required to pay tax at the airport.
