Common questions
Can I call in English?
Japanese is the main language; the official site does not list a multilingual phone desk. If the desk cannot handle the call in English, use the Japanese script below and ask them to speak slowly; language support can change, so confirm the current situation on the official page.
When is it easiest to get through?
Daytime calls are easier to get through; confirm each desk's hours by phone Receiving hours for each desk are not published; call to confirm.
What happens after a week?
There is no single national rule: the office decides how long it keeps an item and when it is passed to the police or another desk. Official routing by location: domestic terminal public areas go to the Domestic Terminal Security Office on 0123-46-5413; the international terminal goes first to the Airport General Information desk on 0123-23-0111, with a separate International Terminal Security Office on 0123-46-2611 for its public areas. Aircraft, check-in counters and checked baggage go to the airline. For JR New Chitose Airport Station, call the JR station on 0123-45-7001. Receiving hours for each desk are not published, so call to confirm. If the item has not been found yet, ask which desk is holding it now, for a reference number, and how long it will be kept.
Can someone collect or ship it for me?
The office decides whether a proxy can collect the item and which ID or authorization is required. If you have already left Japan, ask whether it can be shipped within Japan or overseas, and confirm the conditions and cost with the office. The collection script below has the questions to ask.
