Japan EMS is a popular choice for sending packages from Japan to Hong Kong, but how long does it actually take? Based on our data analysis, the average delivery time for Japan EMS to Hong Kong is 3-5 working days. This timeframe is calculated from the moment the package is accepted by Japan Post until it reaches the recipient in Hong Kong.
It's important to note that actual delivery time may be affected by various factors including: customs clearance speed, holiday season delays, weather conditions, etc. For example, during year-end or Golden Week periods, delivery time may extend by 1-2 working days due to increased parcel volume.
