But now, unfortunately,
I can not send it with registered mail to some nations, including
USA, Canada & Australia.
The Japan Post Authority has stipulated that the current handling of international mail to some nations,
all of the air-mail can not be treated as registered mail.
The handling is due to the paralysis of the international postal system.
I hope to restore international postal services as soon as possible.
