Worked example

Example: ¥100,000 × 0.0067, with a 2% payment fee and 20 in other costs, gives 703.40 in your home currency. Against a home quote of 750, the difference is 46.60.

Before you buy

Check these items as you plan, then use your browser's print option to keep a copy. Checkmarks are not saved.

Write down the exact model, lens bundle and new or used condition. Test the display language on the actual camera body. Ask which country handles warranty service and who pays shipping. Get the return policy and included accessories in writing. Enter the final checkout quote; do not subtract a tax saving twice. Keep the receipt and serial number with your travel documents.

Use comparable quotes

Match the model suffix, condition, accessories and warranty coverage before comparing prices. A used body and a new kit are different purchases even if the model name matches.

What belongs in other costs?

Include only costs relevant to this purchase, such as an extra shopping trip, shipping or an amount you have independently confirmed for import charges. Enter them in the same home currency as your home-market quote. This tool does not determine tax eligibility or import obligations.

Read the result as a price comparison

A positive saving does not compensate automatically for missing language options, difficult returns or unsuitable warranty coverage. If any of those is essential, settle it before paying.
