A regular, simple seal that costs about 200 yen to 1,000 yen is more than enough. (You don't have to get a legally registered seal). 

It takes about 2 hours from order to pick up, or longer in some cases. Therefore, we recommend that you do it as soon as possible.

✅ Points

・Students who come from countries that use Kanji should have their names written in Kanji for the seal. All other students should have their name written in Katakana.

・Students who come from countries that use Kanji can use their family name only or their full name. (As long as it is about 3 characters) Either is fine.

・For all other students; it is often the case that they use their first name written in Katakana. The longer the name, the more expensive it may be, so if possible, try to keep it short. Make sure to discuss it with the staff at the shop.

(Example: David Beckham. In this case, it would be better to use the first name, 'David'.
