The Royal Mail do not make it easy to work out the airmail and surface mail costs of parcel delivery to Japan or the postage required to send postcards to Japan or letters. This is why we at Postage Rates.org.uk have put together this easy to use delivery cost calculator so that you don't have to wrestle with the Royal Mail's various tables and charts in order to work out how much it will cost to send things to Japan from the UK.
** Postage Rates can be used on your mobile device and has been tested on Apple iPad, iPod touch, iPhone and Android. **
Just fill in the form below with details of the type of package / letter you are sending to Japan and it's size and weight (if not a postcard) and click the "Calculate Postage!" button and it will show you the cost of getting it delivered to Japan via Airmail and Surface Mail. (If you are unsure how ‘postcard’, ‘parcel’, ‘airmail’ etc are defined then spend a moment to read the definitions in our Postage and Delivery FAQ... coming soon!).
Airsure® can be up to one day faster than Airmail. Your item will receive priority handling at home and overseas, and benefits from an online tracking facility so you can check your mail's progress along the way. AirSure® only £4.90 more(includes £41 insurance).

Info about Japan: The country of Japan is predominantly mountainous leaving only 15% of its total land cultivable. Despite these typographical constraints Japan is one of the most progressive nations in the world. The coastal city of Tokyo is the metropolitan center of the country and is by far the most heavily populated city. Japan was at the unfortunate receiving end of two atomic bombings that posed all sorts of problems for the country. Remarkably though Japan recovered in the next two decades and today stands as one of the world’s major economic powers known for producing high quality electronics and automobiles.
