Frequently Asked Questions

Omiyage are souvenirs, typically edible local specialties, purchased from a travel destination for friends, family, and colleagues. It's an important part of Japanese gift-giving culture, showing appreciation and sharing your travel experience.

The budget per person varies greatly based on your relationship with the recipient. For close family and friends, a higher budget is common (¥1000-¥4000). For colleagues or acquaintances, smaller, individually wrapped items are appropriate (¥300-¥1500). Our budgeter helps suggest appropriate ranges.

Most omiyage are regional food specialties that are easy to carry and share. Popular choices include local sweets (e.g., Tokyo Banana), crackers, mochi, or regional snacks. Consider items unique to your travel destination. Our tool provides suggestions based on your destination!
