About Nintendo Switch Consoles Shipping

If you tried importing a Nintendo Switch console from Japanese online websites like Amazon Japan you may have run into some trouble. This was because the Japanese customs were not allowing a Nintendo Switch console to leave the country via air. The main reason for this was due to the number of batteries (1 in Body + 2 in Joy-cons). On the other hand, you can ship game catridges as there are no batteries - yeah!

Important: Wireless Certification Restrictions for Nintendo Switch Lite (HDH-001)

Important: The Nintendo Switch console, Joy-Con controllers, Pro Controllers, and other wireless accessories can only be shipped to countries where they have the required wireless certification. If your destination country does not recognize the device's wireless certification, ZenMarket will be unable to ship these items. This restriction applies to the main console, controllers, and any accessories that use wireless communication. According to Nintendo’s official page, the Nintendo Switch Lite (model HDH-001) has wireless certification only in specific countries and regions.

Please note that ZenMarket’s system automatically blocks shipments of the Switch Lite to destinations where this certification has not been obtained.

Currently, this blog only mentions shipping restrictions related to battery quantity. However, the Switch Lite is also subject to wireless certification rules, and this should be clearly understood to avoid confusion or claims after purchase.

📌 We strongly recommend checking Nintendo’s official list of supported regions before placing an order.
