Following the news in September 2015 that Japanese online purchases could be picked up at Taiwanese FamilyMart stores, another shopping-friendly update emerged in March 2016: sending items from Japanese FamilyMart stores to be picked up at Taiwanese ones. For travelers who love buying Japanese goods, this is undoubtedly great news—you can shop as much as you want without worrying about how to bring it all back. This convenient shipping service will become an excellent alternative for many travelers who would otherwise have to carry all their purchases, big or small, back to Taiwan.

FamilyMart has over 3,000 branches in Taiwan. Capitalizing on its extensive retail network and the strong purchasing power of Taiwanese travelers in Japan, Japanese FamilyMart has partnered with Japan Post to officially launch its overseas delivery service within 2016, with an early rollout possible by mid-year.
