Case Summary: Ms. Yu commissioned Seapoe Relo to ship her luggage and miscellaneous items from her home in Chengdu to Tokyo, Japan by sea.

Ms. Yu, who lives in Chengdu, Sichuan, was preparing to move to Tokyo, Japan recently due to work requirements. Although she only had some small furniture and miscellaneous luggage, the personal items to be transported in this international move were numerous and important, so Ms. Yu paid extra attention to this move and began preparing months in advance. Since shipping personal items via freight is too inconvenient, Ms. Yu looked up international moving company costs online, found them acceptable, and began selecting a moving company. After comparing the prices, services, and professionalism of staff at multiple companies, Ms. Yu chose "熙浦国际搬家" as the carrier for this international move.

After understanding Ms. Yu's transportation needs and item list, "熙浦" estimated a volume of approximately 6-7 m³ and recommended that Ms. Yu use LCL group shipping, a rather distinctive sea freight method with high cost-effectiveness and guaranteed item safety. Ms. Yu gladly agreed. After "熙浦"'s packing team went to Ms. Yu's home for door-to-door packing and pickup, and then transported the items to the "熙浦" warehouse for booking, customs declaration, and other procedures, Ms. Yu's luggage and items officially began their sea voyage.

After more than a month, Ms. Yu successfully received all her luggage and items at her new home in Tokyo. The "熙浦" moving team in Japan arranged the items neatly in designated positions according to Ms. Yu's needs, and took away the trash generated by the move and transportation before leaving. Ms. Yu was very satisfied with this moving experience.

With the rise of travel and studying in Japan in recent years, many Chinese people consider relocating to Japan. So how does one go about moving from China to Japan with tax-free customs clearance? Below are the tax-free customs clearance conditions for Japan:

1. Chinese passport + Japanese long-term visa of one year or more (work visa/residence card)
2. Japanese passport + Chinese long-term visa of one year or more
3. Transporting used personal items, with the items arriving at port for customs clearance within 6 months of going to Japan

In addition to a passport and visa, you also need to obtain a Baggage Declaration Form (commonly known as the "little yellow card") at a Chinese airport, fill in the item information and personal details, and have it stamped at the customs service desk after arriving at a Japanese airport. The original little yellow card must be provided during customs clearance to apply for tax-free clearance.
