Q. I don’t live in Japan but for business purposes I need an Japanese address. Can I get a post office box?
A. Yes. You can rent post office box at most central post offices and have the mail forwarded to you.
However it’s not a true ‘accommodation’ address. The mail is just held at the post office for you so you need to tell whoever is writing to you the name of the post office and the box number. Access times may also be restricted.
A better solution that provides a true Japan address at a reasonable cost is the Pakmail company which has various size mail boxes for rent at all of it’s locations You get a regular Japanese address (the address of the Pakmail office) 24 hour access and can have the mailed sorted, forwarded or remailed very easily. Prices are quite low.
