Happy New Year. We sincerely appreciate your continued support this year.
Please note that FedEx has announced a shipping rate increase effective January 5.

Effective January 5, 2026, FedEx shipping rates will be adjusted.  

In addition, we will make these important changes: 

Global Third-Party (G3P) Pricing (Expansion of zone structure) 

Effective January 5, 2026, the G3P zone structure will expand from 16 zones (A–P) to 35 zones (A–Z, 1–9), with some lanes realigned to new zones. Rest assured that your existing transportation discount remains unchanged.  You can download the new zone chart from our G3P webpage. Your personalized FedEx Rate Sheet with the expanded zone structure will be available from January 5, 2026.  

We will also be adjusting our surcharges to account for additional costs associated with FedEx shipments that require special handling or processing effective January 5, 2026:

  • Out-of-Delivery-Area (ODA) Surcharge and Out-of-Pickup-Area (OPA) Surcharge rates. 
  • U.S. Inbound Processing Fee for FedEx international shipments imported into the United States, except FedEx® International Connect Plus shipments.
  • Disbursement Fee assessed on Japan and South Korea import shipments. Please visit our Ancillary Clearance Fees webpage to learn more.

New Assessment Criteria for AHS-Dimension and Oversize Charge

New assessment criteria will be introduced for Additional Handling Surcharge-Dimension (AHS – Dimension) and Oversize Charge (Oversize) effective January 12, 2026.

Thank you for your understanding.

Shipping to the United States

Posted on by backlash1996

We received a call from DHL today.

It’s about shipping to the US.
1. We will not accept personal packages over $800.
2. We can accept personal shipments under $800.

FedEx has also contacted us to say that customs will become stricter for personal shipments.

Our company has decided that we will not send any products made in China, Hong Kong, or Macau to the US,
even if we receive an order. Products made in other countries will be sent as usual.

We will stop shipping products made in China, Hong Kong, and Macau to the US from April 25th onwards.

Thank you for viewing our site. This is an announcement regarding overseas shipping. From May 2nd onwards, cargo bound for the US will be subject to a 125% customs duty on items made in China, Hong Kong, and Macau. Many fishing tackle items are made in China, even by Japanese manufacturers. Therefore, we may not be able to send any Chinese-made items arriving in the US after May 2nd. Thank you for your understanding.
