What does the status of an in-transit package mean?

After you pay for shipping to your location, your package is handed off to the shipping company of your choice to deliver the shipment.

OMGJapan is an online store and not a shipping company, meaning we have no control over delivery speeds or conditions.

If you'd like to check in on the status of an in-transit package, here are some different tracking statuses that can appear on your tracking page for your reference:

Posting/Collection

We shipped your package, and the shipping company now has it in their possession.

Arrival at outward office of exchange

Your package has arrived at the international post office in Tokyo.
