Zen Express: Standard – Exclusive Shipping Method – ZenMarket.jp


ZenMarket is excited to announce a brand new way to ship your items from Japan internationally!

Introducing Zen Express: Standard, a faster and more affordable way to ship small packages from Japan!

 ZenExpress Shipping Option

 

 

Benefits of Zen Express: Standard

 

Zen Express: Standard is fantastic for countries that don’t have access to smaller packet shipping options or if you are just looking for a faster alternative to surface shipping.

Extra small parcels under 500g will typically be even cheaper than shipping with surface, but arrive far sooner!

Shipping times on average can range from 10 – 18 days depending on the shipping destination country.
