The official FAQ says terminal lost property goes to 088-699-2831, and the 1st floor information counter page lists 08:30-21:00. The operator also says found items are kept for 3 months.
Before you call
- Items left on an aircraft are not handled by the airport information counter; ask the airline you actually flew with.
- The operator lists a 3-month holding period, so the earlier you call to confirm, the easier it is to locate the item.
- Note the floor, shop or arrival and departure stage where you last had the item, which makes the phone call quicker.
- This number is for non-urgent lost property enquiries only; it is not 110 or 119 for emergencies.
For items lost inside the Tokushima Awaodori Airport terminal, call 088-699-2831; the 1st floor information counter and its phone window run 08:30-21:00. The official FAQ says found items are kept for 3 months, so contact the airport as soon as you notice the loss. Naruto, Awa Odori and other Tokushima trips often start at this airport, and the official page does not advertise other languages, so prepare a short Japanese explanation if you need one.

Common questions
Can I call in English?
The official page does not list standing phone service in other languages; prepare translation help if needed. 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?
Call right after the line opens at 08:30, or in the hour before it closes at 21:00. Lunchtime (12:00–13:00) is often unanswered. Open all year; terminal hours may change when flights are delayed.
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. The official FAQ says terminal lost property goes to 088-699-2831, and the 1st floor information counter page lists 08:30-21:00. The operator also says found items are kept for 3 months. 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.
What is Native Call?
You can speak English, Mandarin, or Cantonese. The person in Japan hears Japanese, and their Japanese reply is translated back into your selected language.
