Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center – Recovery & Shipping Overseas
KEISEI ELECTRIC RAILWAY LOST & FOUND CENTER · JAPAN LUGGAGE EXPRESS
Lost property held at the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center? We can help you receive it in Japan and ship it overseas.
Japan Luggage Express offers lost property recovery, domestic receipt, and international shipping services for items held by the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center (京成電鉄お忘れ物センター). This includes items lost on the Keisei Skyliner, Keisei Sky Access and other Keisei services, once the holding location has been confirmed. The Center can arrange domestic delivery by freight-collect courier where permitted, and if necessary, we can arrange in-person pickup.
Lost Property at the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center
The Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center handles lost property from Keisei Electric Railway trains and stations, including items reported missing during travel between Narita Airport and Tokyo. Items left on the Keisei Skyliner, on the Keisei Sky Access route (including Access Express services), or at Keisei stations may be transferred to the Center after being found.
Not every item is immediately at the Center. It may initially be held at a station, or — for a train that operates across another railway company’s line — by a different operator. Confirm the current holding location and any reference number before making delivery or pickup arrangements.
If the item is already at the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center and you have returned to your home country, Japan Luggage Express can coordinate receipt in Japan and arrange onward international shipping, subject to the Center’s requirements and shipping regulations.
Why You Should Act Before Your Lost Item Is Transferred to the Police
Act promptly: Lost property is generally kept by Keisei for approximately seven days before transfer to the police. The exact date depends on the item and holding office. Ask the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center when your item will be transferred; do not assume a full seven days remain.
We recommend completing arrangements while the item remains with the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center. The Center may send it to our office by a domestic courier service with the delivery charge paid by us upon arrival (freight collect). We can arrange in-person collection if necessary.
Once the item has been transferred to the Lost and Found Center of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, additional forms, identity checks and authorization documents may be required. The receiving police office and timing should be confirmed for the specific case.
An item transferred to the police may still be recoverable, but the procedure is different and can take more time. This is why it is preferable to make arrangements before the transfer date.
Documents for Receipt from the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center
For an overseas owner authorizing a third party to receive lost property, the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center may request the following. We will confirm the exact requirements for your situation:
- Passport copy — to identify the owner of the lost item.
- Letter of Authorization — permitting Japan Luggage Express or its designated representative to receive or collect the property on the owner’s behalf.
- Item details and reference information — description, date and location of loss, and the reference number or notification issued by Keisei, if available.
We can advise on the Letter of Authorization and any additional instructions from the Center. For privacy, please do not attach a passport copy to your first general inquiry; we will explain how to provide documents when necessary.
How Japan Luggage Express Arranges Receipt and International Shipping
Our service covers communication, receipt in Japan, and shipment abroad. We are an independent service provider, not part of the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center or Keisei Electric Railway.
- Tell us where the item is. Provide the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center reference number if available, description of the item, date of loss and destination country.
- Confirm the authorization and shipping arrangement. We liaise with the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center and explain the passport copy, Letter of Authorization and other applicable requirements.
- Receive the item in Japan. Where permitted, the Center sends the item to our office by freight-collect domestic courier. We pay the domestic delivery charge on receipt. If necessary, we can pick up the item through an authorized representative.
- Ship the item internationally. After receipt, we check the item and shipping options, arrange suitable packing as needed, and dispatch it overseas, subject to carrier and destination restrictions.

How to Contact the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center from Overseas
Keisei provides lost-property inquiries through Keisei Customer Dial: 0570-081-160, option 3 (published hours: Monday–Saturday, 12:00–19:00 Japan time; closed Sundays, public holidays and year-end/New Year holidays). This 0570 service is intended for calls from within Japan and is generally not accessible from overseas.
Japan Luggage Express can make an inquiry on your behalf. If you are unable to call Keisei from abroad, we can contact the relevant office in Japan to confirm the available arrangements. The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department also lists the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center telephone number as 03-5876-8915. Availability and contact details may change.
When contacting us, please provide the approximate time of travel, train or station name, date of loss, an item description and any information received from Keisei. Keisei also operates a lost-item inquiry chat service, which can help you locate an item before arranging its return.
If the Lost Property Has Already Been Transferred to Tokyo Metropolitan Police
If the item is no longer at the Keisei Electric Railway Lost & Found Center, ask where it was transferred and obtain the police reference information. The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Lost and Found Center may require more documentation than Keisei for release or delivery to an authorized recipient.
Japan Luggage Express can also assess arrangements for eligible items held by police offices in Tokyo. Please tell us the current holding office; do not continue using Keisei pickup instructions after the property has been transferred.
