Furusato Nozei

Furusato Nozei thank-you gifts

Go to Furusato Nozei

Thank-you gifts are organised under the same five points as any other product. For procedures and deduction amounts, see the guidance from Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and the National Tax Agency.

What we add for thank-you gifts
On top of the five points, we note the local government, the donation amount (per listing site, with the date retrieved) and roughly when it ships.
What we do not write
We avoid wording that makes a donation sound like shopping, such as “good value”, “return rate” or “effectively 2,000 yen”. We do not calculate deductions or limits, and we do not give advice on filing.
Who can claim the deduction
People who have an address in Japan on 1 January of the year after donating and pay resident tax there, regardless of nationality. Thank-you gifts are generally delivered within Japan only.

What We Check

Five things we check for every product

Read our editorial policy
Every product page covers these five points in the same order. Where the maker does not publish something, we write “Not confirmed” rather than guess.— Ochinity editorial policy

FIG. 02Articles keep transcribed facts separate from our own notes
  1. 01
    Quantity and servings

    How much is in the box, and how many people it feeds — including the size of one serving.

  2. 02
    Storage and shelf life

    Ambient, chilled or frozen — and how long it keeps after it arrives.

  3. 03
    Ingredients and allergens

    We transcribe the ingredient list and allergen labelling exactly as the maker publishes it.

  4. 04
    Suitability as a gift

    Gift boxing, noshi wrapping, ambient shipping — whether it can be sent as a present.

  5. 05
    What reviews tend to say

    Publicly posted reviews, split into what people praise and what they raise as concerns.

Gift Manners

Choose a gift by whether
the recipient can receive it

Gift-ready articles

With mail-order gifts, things can go wrong at delivery, not just on taste. Will the recipient be home when the frozen parcel arrives? How soon must it be eaten once thawed? Here is what to look at for each occasion.

OccasionWhat to check on the product pageWhat tends to go wrong on deliveryBest avoidedLink
Oseibo & OchugenSeasonalWhether you can choose the noshi paper and inscription; whether the description and the notes on the page agreeFrozen parcels take longer to reach the recipient if redelivery is needed — check whether you can set a delivery date and timeRaw items that must be eaten on the day they are thawedFind noshi-ready items →

Editorial Room

We don’t write “delicious”.
We write what we can confirm.

On taste, we only summarise what published reviews tend to say, with the source named — never as Ochinity’s own verdict. Instead, every article checks the same five points in the same order: quantity, storage, ingredients, gifting and reviews. The aim is that you can tell in about three minutes whether a product suits what you need.

Q & A

Questions

Where can I check the price?
Prices change daily, so we do not put amounts in the articles. “Find” shows a price range based on Rakuten’s tax-included price, with the date we checked. For the latest price, shipping and stock, check the shop linked from each article.
What does “Not confirmed” mean?
It marks something we could not confirm in the official description or on the shop’s page. We leave it as not confirmed rather than guess — a sign that it is worth asking the shop before you buy.
Can I order from outside Japan?
Most frozen and chilled items ship within Japan only. Our English and Chinese articles say so wherever delivery is limited to Japan.
