Shipping policy

Overview

PrintaOne ships custom 3D-printed orders from Tokyo, Japan. Because every item is made to order, your order is produced first and shipped after manufacturing is complete.

Production & Shipping Schedule

Production begins after payment is confirmed. Shipping is scheduled once your order has been manufactured, quality-checked, and prepared for dispatch.

For most standard orders, production and quality check typically take approximately 2–5 business days after payment is confirmed. Complex geometries, multi-part assemblies, special materials, or orders requiring manual review may take longer.

Timelines depend on order volume, print complexity, materials, and current production capacity. Any estimates shown on the product page, quote, or at checkout are guides only and are not guaranteed.

We will notify you by email when your order has been shipped.

Shipping Carriers

We use major Japanese carriers, including but not limited to:

  • Yamato Transport (Kuroneko Yamato)
  • Japan Post
  • Sagawa Express

The carrier and service used for your order depend on package size, weight, destination, and availability. We reserve the right to select the most suitable carrier for each shipment.

Delivery Time After Dispatch

Once your order has been shipped, delivery within Japan is typically expected within 2–5 business days, depending on your location and the carrier used.

Business days exclude weekends and Japanese national holidays. Delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed.

Shipping Fees

Flat rate (Japan): Standard shipping within Japan is ¥750 per order.

Free shipping: Orders with a subtotal of ¥7,000 or more (before shipping and taxes) qualify for free standard shipping within Japan.

The applicable shipping rate is calculated automatically and displayed at checkout before you complete your order. The rate shown at checkout is the rate that applies to your order.

Any customs duties, import taxes, or fees for international shipments are the responsibility of the recipient unless otherwise stated at checkout.

Order Tracking

When available, a tracking number will be sent to the email address provided at checkout. You can use it to follow your shipment on the carrier’s website.

Tracking information may take up to 24–48 hours to become active after dispatch.

Delivery Address

Please ensure your shipping address and contact details are correct before placing your order. We are not responsible for delays or failed delivery caused by incorrect or incomplete address information.

If a package is returned to us due to an incorrect address, refusal of delivery, or repeated failed delivery attempts, we may contact you to arrange reshipment. Additional shipping charges may apply.

Delays & Events Beyond Our Control

Delivery may take longer than expected due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to:

  • Carrier delays or service disruptions
  • Severe weather or natural disasters
  • Customs processing (for international orders)
  • High order volume or production delays

If a significant delay occurs, we will do our best to notify you and work with the carrier to resolve the issue.
