In 2018 I went with a few radio friends to Parkalompolo Sweden. There you can catch lots of radio-stations from all over the world. Receiving stations from Japan is extraordinary fun and results most of the time in very nice replies from the stations. All reception reports were sent by regular mail. It is widely known that email is a no-go for Japanese stations. (Now more than 40 stations).

Thanks to Koji Shimotori I found out that "ベリカードについて" (vericard) is an interesting Google search term when seeking information about Japanese QSLs.
QSL card "ベリカード"
QSL letter "ベリレター"
QSL "受信確認証"
Reception Report is called "受信報告書"
Don't forget to use also other search machines like Bing or DuckDuckGo. They give often different results.
I never thought that some stations should provide info about QSLs on their website. Here are a few examples.
