What types of medical masks are allowed to be sent to Japan?
A medical mask is a protective device used to cover the mouth and nose, helping to prevent the spread of bacteria, viruses and other harmful agents through the respiratory tract.
Medical masks are often used in environments with a high risk of infection, such as hospitals, clinics, factories, schools, and on public transportation.
According to Japanese customs regulations, types of medical masks allowed to be sent to Japan include:

N95 medical mask: This type of mask has a higher ability to filter fine dust and bacteria than 3-layer medical masks.
