## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

### Can you ship fresh/frozen Wagyu to my country?
Yes, but import restrictions apply depending on the destination. Wagyu imports are fully compliant with USDA (US), SFA (Singapore), Dubai Municipality (UAE), and EU health standards. We verify eligibility and prepare all necessary health certificates.

### How is customs clearance handled?
WAGYU NINJA prepares 100% of the export-side paperwork. Import duties, consumption taxes, and destination-side customs clearances are the buyer's responsibility. We label and format all documentation to guarantee zero customs rejections.

### Do you offer samples for B2B buyers?
Yes. Wholesale buyers can request sample packs at cost for Matcha, Shiitake, Nori, Incense, and Porcelain.

### What is the shipping time?
EMS/DHL typically delivers in 3–7 business days. Frozen cold-chain Wagyu takes 5–10 business days due to airport quarantine schedules.
