One specific question I have: about how much should it cost to mail a 32x19x17-inch storage bin full of my stuff from the States to Japan?

Thanks for the help in advance.
Japan has a nationalized health care system, so depending on the capacity you will be staying, that will be covered.

The first question is what visa will you be using?
