You can track your order on our website here:

Track Your Order

Orders can also be tracked directly on your local postal service website (USPS, Canada Post, Australia Post, etc.). However, please be aware that these websites can take up to a few weeks to update their tracking information after an order has left Japan).

If you do not have a tracking number:  Only orders sent by registered or express shipping are trackable. Orders sent by economy shipping do not include a tracking number.

Orders sent with economy shipping generally take 9 to 30 working days (excluding weekends) to be delivered. Although it is very uncommon- in some extreme cases, some packages sent with economy shipping can take up to 45 working days to be delivered.

Orders sent with our registered/tracked shipping method generally take around 9-20 business days to be delivered. Express shipping varies depending on the shipping region, but usually take 2 to 5 business days to most countries.

These estimated windows begin after orders leave our warehouse. Please contact us if your package is not delivered within the estimated shipping window.

Don’t be alarmed if your package looks like it is stuck in Osaka on the JP Post website! In most cases, once the order has left Japan, the tracking can take up to a few weeks to update on your regional postal service website since it is now in the hands of your regional shipping provider (USPS, Australia Post, etc). Your tracking will begin to update again after your package arrives in your country.

Shipping costs vary depending on where you live, the weight of your package and the shipping method you choose.

Exact shipping rates will be displayed during the checkout process. We also offer Free Shipping on orders of $180 USD or more to many countries!

Keep in mind that estimated delivery windows do not include weekends. Additionally, shipping delays do happen from time to time and they are unfortunately out of our control.

If your delivery window has passed and you still have not received your order, please contact us and we will track down your package for you.

When using Free Shipping, please be aware that Bento&co will pick the shipping carrier that suits your order best depending on the size and nature of the items purchased. In general, orders using this option typically arrive within 9 to 20 business days (does not include weekends).

Our Free Shipping option does not cover any customs fees and/or taxes associated with buying goods from abroad. You may still be billed by the carrier for these fees and handling. Thank you for your understanding.

We offer Express Shipping to most regions. After providing your country and zip code during checkout, express shipping options available for your order will be displayed along with the estimated shipping window for each method. Depending on your location, express shipping is fulfilled by DHL, FedEx, or UPS.

Yes! We guarantee our products to arrive in perfect condition. In the event that an item from your order is damaged during shipping, please email us with a detailed photo of the damage within 48 hours of your delivery.

'Retention' means that your parcel is being held at your local Post Office and you either need to pick it up there or schedule a redelivery if possible.

Packages are sometimes sent back to our offices for a variety of reasons (customer provided incomplete shipping address, package was not picked up within post office retention period, etc.). In these cases, the customer is responsible for paying a fee to re-ship the package. If you do not want to pay a re-shipping fee, we will refund your order (minus the shipping fee, if applicable).

If you're not satisfied with your purchase, you can return the items and ask for a refund, an exchange or store credit.

All returned items must be unused and in the original condition you received them in. Shipping fees cannot be reimbursed.

Exchange requests must be made within seven (7) days after delivery. Simply notify us of the item(s) you would like to exchange and send the item(s) you received back to us (customer is responsible for return shipping fees). After we receive the returned item(s), we will adjust any price differences and send you the new item(s) requested.

Yes! You can create a customer account on Bento&co and save your payment and shipping details for faster checkouts in the future.

We can cancel your order if it has not shipped out yet. Send us an email to let us know that you would like to cancel your order.

In the event that your order has already left our warehouse, we unfortunately cannot cancel your order. Unwanted items will have to be returned after delivery (customer is responsible for return shipping costs). After the unwanted items are received at our offices, we will refund the order minus the original shipping cost.

We can add or remove items from your order if your order has not shipped yet. Send us an email to let us know how you would like to modify your order.

In the event that your order has already shipped out, we unfortunately cannot modify your order. Unwanted items will need to be returned after they received (customer is responsible for return shipping costs) and any additional items will need to be purchased as a separate order.

After adding items to your cart and clicking ‘proceed to checkout,’ enter your discount code in the ‘gift card or discount code’ box and click ‘apply.’ Your total should reflect the new discounted price.

We accept PayPal, Visa, Mastercard and American Express credit cards. We also accept Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Shop pay.

We have a variety replacement parts for select products available on our site.

If you can't find the replacement piece you need, please send us an email describing what part is lost or broken and we will try to find a replacement piece for you.

Some bento boxes are microwave safe and some are not. This is primarily dependent on what material the bento box is made from.

Microwave compatibility is indicated in the Product Details section for each bento box on our website.

Size S indicates bento boxes with a holding capacity smaller than 500ml. They are appropriate for children or people with small appetites. They can also be used for snacks or as a supplementary bento box.

Size M indicates bento boxes with a holding capacity between 500 and 780ml. Many of them have two compartments, one of which is designed to hold rice (or another carb such as pasta) and the other for sides and proteins. Size M boxes are appropriate for most adults and older children.

Size L indicates bento boxes with a holding capacity between 780 and 1000 ml. These are bento boxes for people with hearty appetites. If this still seems too small for you, consider the XL sized bento boxes!

Size XL (and Picnic) encompasses our largest single user boxes (around 1.3 L) as well as even larger (mostly multi tier) boxes designed to be used by 2 or more people for picnics, dinner parties, etc.

Most of our bento boxes (Small, Medium, Large, and some XL) can be wrapped with a furoshiki cloth within the 45 cm to 50 cm range. Larger XL boxes, shokado and picnic bentos will typically require a 70 cm or larger furoshiki.

However, please note that we carry a wide variety of bento boxes in varying shapes and sizes. Thus, these suggestions are merely general guidelines- actual fit will depend on your specific bento box. For this reason, please do not hesitate to contact us at contact@bentoandco.com if you're not sure which size you need for your bento.

Most of our bento boxes that require a lunch band to stay closed include a band with your purchase.

If you do need a separate lunch band, the 24 cm or 27 cm lunch band sizes fit the majority of our bento boxes (Small, Medium, Large and a few XL). Larger XL boxes and picnic bentos (about 1500 ml+) will mostly require a 40 cm lunch band.

For uncommonly shaped bento boxes, shokado style bentos, natural wood bentos, etc., we recommend transporting your box with a furoshikiinstead.

We also carry a few product-specific replacement lunch bands, such as our Kokeshi Bento lunch bands and our Big Kokeshi Bento lunch bands.

However, please note that we carry a wide variety of bento boxes in varying shapes and sizes, and thus there is unfortunately no true 'one size fits all' lunch band. For this reason, please do not hesitate to contact us at contact@bentoaondco.com if you're not sure which size you need for your bento.

Typically, no, a sold out item cannot be ordered. However, even if an item is currently sold out, it doesn't mean that it won't be restocked. When a product is sold out, click on the "Notify Me When Available" button under the product price to receive an email as soon as the product is available again.

As our products are shipped from Japan they may be subject to taxes and to customs fees in the country of delivery. These costs are the customer’s responsibility. 

For our customers in the USA:

Most packages with a declared value that is under $2000 USD will be cleared without any fees.

For our customers in Australia: 

Orders below $1000 AUD are regarded as 'low value imports' by Australian customs. As of 01 July 2018, customs duties may apply to any goods imported from overseas by consumers in Australia. For more information please visit the Australian customs website. 

For our customers in Canada: 

Orders above $20 CAN require that you pay the applicable duties and the GST. For more information please visit the Canadian customs website.

For our customers in the EU:

From 1 July 2021, import VAT is payable on all goods entering the EU, irrespective of their value. For goods with a value of more than €150 you will have to pay Customs Duty in addition to import VAT. The customs value on which Customs Duty is calculated is the cost of the goods plus transport (including postage), any insurance and any handling charges to deliver the goods to the EU. The rate of Customs Duty that applies depends on the goods you import.
 Carrier handling fees are typically $10 to $20.
To minimize fees, we recommend selecting the ePacket shipping method and not the Express Shipping Method.

We understand that custom fees are worrying for some of you. We hope that you are reassured by the fact that, when buying on Bento&co, you really are ordering direct from Japan- getting authentic and original Japanese items that are not easily found anywhere else.

For Express Shipping: FedEx, UPS and DHL usually send an invoice a few days after delivery where as EMS (JP Post shipped, delivered by your National Post) generally charges the required sum at delivery. 

For Registered & Economy Shipping: Your national carrier will generally bill you when applicable.

Due to shipping regulations out of our control, we cannot claim orders as gifts at customs.

Discount codes provided by Bento&co are valid only if they can be applied in the purchase before payment.

IV. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY

1. Shipment

Once an order is processed, most packages are dispatched within two (2) working days (please allow extra time for orders placed over weekends and holidays). You'll receive a shipping confirmation email after your order leaves our warehouse, which includes information such as a tracking number, at that time.

All products are dispatched from Japan by airmail or a private carrier in the following list (UPS, FedEx, DHL). Please consult the Shipping and Tracking section for a list of countries we ship to, as well as what to do if your country is not on the list. 

In general, we offer the following shipping options:

Economy (untracked, for small packages): estimated delivery within 10 to 30 business days to many regions

Registered/Tracked: estimated delivery within 9 to 20 business days to many regions

Express (tracked): estimated delivery within 2 to 5 business days to many regions

Please note that 'business days' do not include weekends or holidays.

2. Shipping cost

Shipping costs vary according to the parcel's weight and the shipment method of your choice.

To get a shipping estimate, simply add desired items to your cart, and click “View Cart”. Under “Subtotal” click “Calculate Shipping” and input your shipping country, state, and zip code and your shipping cost options  will be displayed.  For high-volume and/or professional orders, actual shipping fees may differ from these estimates.

We also offer Free Shipping on orders of $180 USD or more to many countries. Head to our Shipping and Tracking section for more details about that discount. 

Regarding changes to your shipping address:
If you notice you need to modify your shipping address BEFORE your order has been shipped, just email us at contact@bentoandco.com with your order number and updated shipping address and we can make the edit.

If you need to modify your shipping address AFTER we have shipped your order, please contact the responsible shipping carrier to make the change. PLEASE NOTE: This address change request will incur a fee ($15-$25+ depending on the location of the new address). We will invoice you for this address change fee.
3. Delivery issues

Economy or Registered shipments (Japanese post): if you have not received your order by 30 business days, first check with your local post office. Please contact us only after 45 working days, at which time we can file a missing package claim and send you a replacement order.
Express shipments (FedEx, DHL, UPS and EMS): customers are responsible for their order's online tracking (the tracking number is included in the shipping confirmation mail). Sometimes, carriers cannot deliver a package (for instance, due to the size of the mailbox). In this case, customers may have to contact carriers directly. 
Bento&Co will not be responsible for the return of parcels that couldn't be delivered. We are able to reship returned packages, but the reshipping cost will be at the customer's expense.
For more information about shipping fees, taxes and delivery, please read our Shipping and Tracking section. 

V. RETURN AND CANCELLATION POLICY
If you are not satisfied with your order, you have seven days after receiving your order to return the item(s) for an exchange, refund or store credit. Every inquiry must be sent by email to contact@bentoandco.com. Please indicate what you are returning and why. In order for us to process your return, please include your name, email address and order number along with the name of the items that you're returning. You will be responsible for the shipping charges associated with sending the unwanted item(s) back to us. Shipping fees are not eligible for a refund.
In the event that a product is damaged during shipping, please contact customer service at contact@bentoandco.com and send a detailed photo of the damage with the order number. 
Customers can cancel an order until it is dispatched (please contact us as soon as possible). 
We try to ensure that all product information is accurate and complete, and that the photographs clearly indicate the shape, color and details of each item. Because orders are shipped internationally, exchanges cannot be made for products ordered incorrectly due to customer error so please order carefully! 
Please be aware that in all cases the customer is responsible for paying customs fees and for providing any and all documents required by Customs in your country. If the customer refuses to pay these taxes, the package will return to us. We'll then refund you the amount of the order, after having withdrawn the shipping cost at actual rate that we have been charged by the carrier, and the shipping cost of the return of the package to us. Note that express shipments can't be sent back to us as return fees are too high (usually exceed the order value). In that case, the order will be destroyed and no refund will be possible. 

VI. REFUND
Bento&Co will refund the customer within two business days after having received the returned items. The refund will be processed on the same account that was used for the purchase (or a voucher code, according to the customer's wish). 

VII. APPLICABLE DUTY
The company BERTRAND CO. is subject to Japanese law. Within those confines, we will try to satisfy our customers as much as we are able. In the event of complaint or difficulties, the customer can contact Bento&Co customer service for help in finding an amicable resolution.

We do not sell any of our products on Amazon. Currently, one store named 'Bento & co' exists on the U.S. Amazon site and sells a few products (including a low quality imitation of our Japanese-made Bin 8 Kitchen Tool). This site is not affiliated with us in any way.

We opened our flagship store, Japan's first specialty bento box shop, here in Kyoto in 2012. If you are traveling to Kyoto or live here, come stop by and say hello!

Note: We are currently open on WEEKENDS ONLY from 11am-5pm.
