Frequently Asked Questions — Japan
What import requirements does Japan have for green coffee?
Japan requires MAFF phytosanitary inspection and Food Sanitation Act registration for imported green coffee. PyraBrew prepares certificates of origin, phytosanitary reports, and quality documentation aligned with these requirements, and works with your customs broker to confirm any additional documentation needed.
Which Japanese ports do you ship to?
We offer CIF delivery to Yokohama and Kobe, Japan's two principal green coffee import ports with established specialty coffee trading infrastructure. FOB Djibouti pricing is also available for buyers with their own freight arrangements.
Why is Ethiopian coffee well suited to the Japanese market?
Japan's specialty and kissaten coffee culture places exceptional value on distinct, traceable origin character. Our washed Yirgacheffe lots in particular deliver the clean, floral clarity that resonates strongly with Japan's quality-focused roasters and cafe operators.
Can I request samples shipped to Japan?
Yes. We dispatch pre-shipment samples via international courier to qualified commercial buyers in Japan within five business days of request, so you can evaluate cupping quality before committing to a container.
