The bottom line
For Cypriots, buying Japan-direct through Pacific Card Exchange means newer sets, lower per-box prices, and full transparency on taxes, duties, and shipping.
Why Cyprus collectors import from Japan
Demand for sealed Japanese Pokémon keeps climbing across Cyprus — from collectors and local card shops in Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, and Paphos to resellers stocking bulk cases. Japanese sets release months ahead of Western print runs and frequently cost less per box, even after import costs.
Buying Japan-direct through Pacific Card Exchange lets Cypriots skip the local reseller markup and source the newest releases — Black Bolt, White Flare, and Terastal Festival — straight from verified sellers in Japan, with live JPY pricing on every set.
Shipping to Cyprus
Most Japan-to-Cyprus orders ship via DHL, with fully tracked, insured delivery typically landing in 3–7 business days. After your payment clears, sellers usually provide a tracking number within 24–48 hours.
Pacific Card Exchange managed orders use flat-rate international shipping regardless of box count, so you know the delivery cost up front. Parcels enter the EU through a customs hub where VAT and a small handling fee are assessed before final delivery in Cyprus.

3–7 business days
Many sellers use DHL for EU and UK orders when FedEx is unavailable or more expensive. Transit is slightly longer but often more economical for European destinations.
Customs & import taxes in Cyprus
Since July 2021 the EU has charged VAT on all imports into Cyprus with no low-value exemption. Expect the standard 19% VAT on the declared value plus a small carrier clearance fee (around €3) collected before delivery.
Trading cards clear EU customs duty-free, so there is no separate tariff — the main cost is 19% VAT plus shipping. Our import calculator models this in EUR so you can compare the landed cost against local Cyprus prices before you commit.

Tax and duty figures are indicative and can change — always confirm current rules with Cyprus's customs authority before a large order.
