Other than that, you should be fine.

However, considering the costs, I would recommend you buy a used bike in Japan and sell it when you leave. (Unless you plan to ride back to Portugal).


Thank you Chris.

I'd like to keep the bike after the year in Japan. That's why I am thinking about taking it from Australia to Japan.

Any ideia how much the sea freight would cost from the East Coast of Australia to Tokyo and how long it would take?

I can report that Interfracht is one exceptional company, 1300€ all included from Tokyo to Bremerhaven. Absolutely smooth without any problems, and without any additional charges. Awesome service, german company with a branch in Ginza. I can recommend to max.

Really seems expensive to get a bike into japan. Me and my wife are planning a trip to japan the long way round via usa. Seem like we will be the better part of 4k to get our bike shipped and into the country.
