Hakodate Airport Lost and Found

函館空港 · Hokkaido (北海道), Hokkaido (北海道)

Short answer

Hakodate Airport’s official page sends items lost in the terminal building or the car park to “find chat”, an online chat service run by find Inc., and items left on a plane to the airline. The page also prints one phone number, for the Hakodate Airport Office (8:00–20:00 JST). If you are already home, start with find chat, then contact us if you want help in Japanese.

What to prepare before you inquire

  • Whether you lost it in the terminal building, in the car park or on a plane
  • Date and approximate time you last had the item
  • Airline and flight number, if you were travelling
  • Item type, colour, brand, size, distinguishing marks, and what was inside
  • Photos of the item or of an identical model, if you have them
  • An email address you can receive messages at, because find chat sends its login link by email

Already left Japan?

  1. For a terminal or car-park loss, open find chat from the link above and follow the five steps the official page lists.
  2. For an item left on a plane, use the inquiry page the official page links for your airline.
  3. If the item is confirmed found, ask how long it will be held and what is needed to release it. The official page states neither.
  4. Ask whether a representative may collect it and what documents are needed. The official page does not say.
  5. If you want us to speak to the Airport Office in Japanese, or collect the item where the facility allows it, contact us with the confirmation you received.
  6. After we receive the item, we pack it and ship it internationally. We quote available shipping methods and fees individually, and arrival dates are not guaranteed.

How Lost and Found Japan can help

  • Contact the Airport Office or the airline in Japanese and relay the answers to you
  • Help you describe the item the way the chat or the office asks
  • Collect the item on your behalf, only where the facility allows a representative
  • Pack the item and ship it internationally once we have it
  • We cannot search the airport ourselves and we cannot make a facility release an item. We work within what the facility allows.
