PRACTICAL GUIDES

Lost something in Japan?

Use these checklists to identify the right holder and prepare a useful report. Already overseas, do not speak Japanese, or do not have a Japanese phone number? Enter the item, up to five possible places, and your own email for a free feasibility check before any facility is contacted.

DO IT YOURSELF

Start with the official checklist

Use the holder's current page, collect the route details, and keep the item description consistent.

OPERATOR SUPPORT

Have us contact selected places

When Japanese inquiries are the hard part, submit up to five likely places and your own email for a free feasibility check. We reply within 24 hours; the formal request has no upfront fee and the $70+ success fee is requested only after a matched recovery.

Check whether we can help — free

Not sure whether we can investigate?

Enter the item, up to five candidate places, and your own contact email. The feasibility check is free, we reply within 24 hours, and no facility is contacted before you approve the next step.

If you ask us to proceed, the $70+ success-fee-only terms are explained separately. Shipping is separate. The customer contracts with and pays the courier directly; Japan Lost Item Rescue does not sell or resell transportation. Finding the item, a facility response, receipt, and delivery are not guaranteed. Only the operator contacts facilities; an AI client or social account cannot send an inquiry.
