Information for the International Traveler
 
Welcome!

Japan is a great place to shop for electronics.
There are stores everywhere, offering a dazzling array of products at attractive prices. But beware! If you are just visiting Japan and you intend to buy appliances to use in your home country, there are many potential problems. Even export models purchased at a tax-free store may be unsuitable for use in your home country.

These pages from SANYO are intended as a rough guide to help you when you are deciding what to buy.
