Bottle of Australian Honey into Japan 2018/10/7 19:28
Can I bring a jar of Australian Honey into Japan...as a gift. I live in a country town and local honey is collected here...it is in a glass bottle and labled. I am not sure of Quarantine regulations as to bringing in such an item as a gift...thank you in advance.

if the bottle has a certificated label, 検査証明書, which shows it is OK to export, issued from your government, you can bring it into Japan. I am suspicious that products, sold in local markets, may have such a label.
many site says that honey from Australia is a typical souvenir and that honey sold at duty free shops in airports may have a label.

A upc is a barcode.

The product needs to be a commercely manufactured and sealed product.

A jar of homemade stuff from the sunday markets wont cut it.
