Japan Post international mail can carry alcohol at 24% ABV or below, and only where the destination accepts it. No referral link is issued.
Japan Post international mail can carry alcohol only at 24% ABV or below, and only where the destination allows it.
Buyee, re-read on 2026-10-15: 24% or below goes by Japan Post. 24.1% or above goes by DHL. Austria and Finland are DHL-only for alcoholic beverages below 60% ABV. Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, and Vietnam can take 24% or below by Japan Post, and Buyee says alcohol above 24% cannot be shipped there. Buyee lists Argentina, Belarus, Brazil, Brunei, Cambodia, Canada, Guam, India, Italy, Philippines, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United States, France, and Sweden as prohibiting the import.
Tenso, re-read the same day: Japan Post is for ABV under 24%, and DHL is for ABV under 70%, with a per-country table. A country is treated as blocked when that table marks both columns unavailable, or when Buyee's prohibition list contains it. The shared result is one answer for every proxy.
ZenMarket, Neokyo, FROM JAPAN, and White Rabbit alcohol country tables were not opened. US state law was not researched.
Bahrain is an example of a destination that refuses alcohol in Japan Post's nonmailable-articles result.
A 2023 comment from ZenMarket's Reddit account said DHL to the UK was stopped for whisky and that sake could go by EMS. That is a dated anecdote, not a current rule. Tenso's copied row for the United Kingdom marks both Japan Post and DHL available.
Sake can be worth describing for some destinations in the EU, the UK, Australia, and parts of Asia. That is a scope note, not an allow-list.
Whisky reaches few countries and is not a main category. Age checks and alcohol-advertising rules also apply and are not modeled.
