Food that cannot be proxy purchased
Fresh food and refrigerated/frozen food
Fresh food (raw meat, raw vegetables, raw beans, etc.) and food that needs to be refrigerated or frozen cannot be proxy purchased. This is because the WorldShopping warehouse stores items at room temperature, so the food quality cannot be maintained.
Food that can be proxy purchased
Food that can be stored at room temperature can be proxy purchased if it meets the conditions below.
Examples of food that can be stored at room temperature
Food that can be stored at room temperature, such as sweets, dried goods, and canned food, is eligible for purchase.
Conditions on the best-before date and use-by date
As a rule, at the time the product arrives at the WorldShopping warehouse, there must be 50 days or more remaining until the best-before date or use-by date.
If the best-before date is less than 50 days away, the item may not be shippable depending on the shipping method and the destination country. In that case, WorldShopping will contact you.
Import regulations of the destination country
There are foods that cannot be shipped due to the import regulations of the destination country.
