Two deliberately quiet lists
Choose exactly what reaches you.
Rule Alerts reports a sourced change. Field Notes appears only when a new practical guide or tool is worth carrying into Japan. They are separate subscriptions.
Japan's duty-free system changes on 1 November 2026. That is a Rule Alert. A new bottle-checking tool is a Field Note. Keeping those promises separate means subscribing to one never silently opts you into the other.
Rules, tax and standards
Rule Alerts
One exceptional email when the finished whisky-label reference opens. After that, only a sourced change to a rule this site already tracks.
- Duty-free procedures and thresholds
- Whisky labelling standards
- Tax or aviation rules covered here
New practical work
Field Notes
An occasional note when a new sourced guide, printable checklist or decision tool is published. No weekly digest and no sales sequence.
- New decision tools
- New source-backed guides
- Material revisions to practical references
Each form is a separate double opt-in. Join either or both; unsubscribe from any message. See the privacy policy for what is stored and why.
