SLP Express prescription medicine packing process Hyderabad to Japan

Indians working in Tokyo and Osaka face a unique challenge โ€” many common Indian medicines and Ayurvedic products are either unavailable or very expensive in Japan. Standard BP tablets, thyroid medicines, sealed Himalaya and Dabur brands can be shipped. But Japan has one of the world's strictest medicine import rules. From Banjara Hills, Kondapur, Hitech City, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Bowenpally, or anywhere in Hyderabad โ€” we pickup free, same day. 25 years shipping for Indian families to Japan. Over 1 lakh parcels delivered. WhatsApp +91 99510 83676 BEFORE booking to confirm your specific medicines.

Important: Japan is very strict on medicines. Many common Indian medicines containing codeine, some inhalers, and certain cold remedies are controlled substances in Japan. Even some Ayurvedic herbal formulas may be questioned. We strongly advise WhatsApp consultation before booking any medicine shipment to Japan. 1-month supply maximum without a Japanese import permit. With correct documentation โ€” doctor's letter, prescription, sealed manufacturer packs โ€” standard diabetes, BP, and thyroid medicines clear Japan customs. 25 years experience. ISO certified.

โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜…

I work in Tokyo and needed my thyroid tablets, BP medicines, and sealed Himalaya supplements. SLP confirmed exactly which medicines were safe for Japan before shipping, guided me on the 1-month limit rule. Packed perfectly, Japan customs cleared smoothly. Arrived in 5 days. Without their expert guidance I would have had problems. This is the courier for Japan.

Narayana P., Kondapur Hyderabad โ†’ Japan
โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜…

Japan's medicine rules are genuinely confusing. SLP WhatsApp consultation helped me understand exactly what I could send โ€” confirmed Metformin and Thyronorm are fine, warned me away from a cough syrup that's controlled in Japan. They shipped the safe medicines perfectly. Cleared Japan customs without a single issue. Experts in international medicine courier.

Swathi K., Madhapur Hyderabad โ†’ Japan
โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜… โ˜…

Sent calcium tablets, Himalaya Ashwagandha, and diabetes medicines (1-month supply) to my son in Osaka. SLP Gachibowli pickup, detailed customs paperwork, doctor's letter in the correct format. Japan customs cleared in 2 days. Reached Osaka in 4 working days. The WhatsApp consultation before booking saved me from shipping something restricted. Exceptional service from SLP.

Frequently asked questions โ€” medicine courier to Japan

Straight answers to what families in Hyderabad ask before they book.

Starting at ₹940 per kg via Aramex โ€” a 0.5โ€“1 kg parcel for โ‚น2,150. A 1-month supply of diabetes or thyroid medicines typically weighs under 1 kg (Japan's allowed limit), so โ‚น2,150 is a common cost. Larger supplement boxes (2-3 kg) run โ‚น5,400โ€“8,500. We are cheapest international courier from Hyderabad to Japan โ€” 40-50% below DHL retail. IMPORTANT: always WhatsApp us your medicine list before booking โ€” Japan has strict rules on certain medicines. WhatsApp +91 99510 83676.
Japan has some of the world's strictest medicine import laws. Many medicines common in India are controlled substances in Japan โ€” including codeine-based cough syrups, some inhalers, certain cold medicines, and some nasal sprays. Even some Ayurvedic herbs are occasionally flagged. The maximum personal use limit is 1 month's supply without a Japanese import permit. Violations can lead to serious penalties. This is why we always ask customers to WhatsApp us their complete medicine list before booking any Japan shipment. We check and confirm safe medicines.
Never send to Japan: codeine-based cough syrups (many popular Indian brands contain codeine), morphine or opium-derived medicines, certain stimulants, strong sleeping pills, some amphetamine-derived medicines. Some common Indian cold tablets have restricted ingredients in Japan. Even some Ayurvedic herbs are sometimes flagged by Japan customs. ALWAYS WhatsApp us your complete medicine list at +91 99510 83676 before booking โ€” we check against current Japan restrictions and tell you which medicines are safe to ship.
Some Himalaya and Dabur products can be sent to Japan โ€” simple mineral-based supplements, Ashwagandha capsules, Chyawanprash are generally fine in sealed original packs. However, some Ayurvedic formulas with specific herbal ingredients may be questioned by Japan customs. Always share the exact product names and ingredient lists with us on WhatsApp before booking. We check current Japan customs status for each product. Sealed original manufacturer packs with full ingredient labels in English help enormously.
Japan customs allows personal-use prescription medicines in quantities of up to 1 month's supply per item without a special import permit. This is stricter than USA, UK, or Europe (which allow 3 months). So if your diabetes tablets are for 30 days, that's fine. 60 days or more โ€” Japan customs will query or hold it. The doctor's letter must specifically mention 1-month supply. We advise all customers planning Japan shipments: ship monthly, keep quantities small. We help you write the correct doctor's letter format for Japan.
4-6 working days door to door once shipped. Free pickup from Hyderabad home same day โ€” Banjara Hills, Kondapur, Hitech City, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Bowenpally, all zones. We ship next day via Aramex. Japan customs takes 2-3 days to clear medicines (longer than other countries due to stricter checking). Medicines in Tokyo or Osaka in 4-6 days total. Live tracking throughout. For Japan specifically, we recommend booking 7-10 days before you need the medicines. Always WhatsApp first.
Yes โ€” insulin with a valid prescription is allowed into Japan for personal use (1-month supply limit applies). We pack insulin in insulated boxes with ice packs for the 4-6 day transit. Doctor's prescription required showing the exact type of insulin, dosage, and that it's for personal use. Japan customs carefully checks insulin shipments โ€” documentation must be perfect. We prepare the customs paperwork carefully. Many Indian diabetics in Tokyo receive monthly insulin from family in Hyderabad this way. WhatsApp +91 99510 83676 to book.
Yes โ€” free same day pickup from anywhere in Hyderabad once you've confirmed your medicine list with us. Banjara Hills, Kondapur, Hitech City, Madhapur, Gachibowli, Begumpet, Secunderabad, Ameerpet, SR Nagar, Kukatpally, Bowenpally, and 40+ more zones. Free airtight packing. Free cold-chain insulation if insulin. Free customs paperwork. All included โ€” no extra charges. But please WhatsApp us your medicine list FIRST before we confirm pickup โ€” Japan rules are that strict.
Yes โ€” 40-50% cheaper than DHL retail. DHL retail for 1 kg to Japan is โ‚น2,400-2,900. We charge ₹940 per kg via Aramex or FedEx at wholesale rates. For 5 kg, DHL charges โ‚น17,000+; we charge โ‚น8,500. 25 years of bulk shipping gives us wholesale carrier rates. Plus free pickup, free packing, free customs paperwork โ€” all things DHL charges extra for. Same delivery speed (4-6 days), better service. For Japan, our 25-year experience with Japan's strict customs rules is an extra advantage over booking DHL directly.
Step 1 โ€” WhatsApp +91 99510 83676 with your complete medicine list (every medicine by name, brand, ingredients if Ayurvedic). We check which medicines are safe for Japan customs and which to avoid. Step 2 โ€” we advise you on the correct doctor's letter format for Japan (1-month supply, correct wording). Step 3 โ€” you arrange the doctor's letter and prescription. Step 4 โ€” we pickup free, pack everything, prepare all customs paperwork. Step 5 โ€” we ship via Aramex. Live tracking shared. Medicines reach Tokyo or Osaka in 4-6 days. 25 years trusted, ISO certified.
