Customer support always responds quickly and accurately to my inquiries. The first time I used the service, I was not familiar with the operation, and customer support provided me with detailed instructions. What impressed me the most was the speed of their response, always getting back to me within a few hours.

I think the best part is that they package multiple items together for free.
I always ask for a large number of items, and they always pack them so neatly and carefully that I am fascinated every time. -

I feel secure because I am using one of Rakuten Group's service. I have used them several times so far, but they have all shipped quickly and I have never had any trouble with customs. They notified me the payment of customs duty promptly and without any uncertainties, and that the documentation is well handled. I will continue to use the service while I am abroad. Thank you very much.

This service is very convenient, and they process my requests very quickly. I received a package in just 3 days after making the packing request. I often use Rakuten Ichiba, so it's nice that I can use Rakuten points to pay for overseas shipping.

I use Rakuten Global Express to ship items from outside Japan because I can't rely on my parents, who don't know how to ship overseas. Using Rakuten Global Express is very convenient for me to ship whatever I want.
