Some Ichiran ramen shops apply a late-night surcharge from 22:00 to 06:00. The exact opening hours and menu vary by branch, so check the shop page before travelling at night.
- Ichiran shop pages identify 22:00–06:00 as the late-night surcharge period where applicable.
- Ichiran eGift is a digital voucher sold through services including LINE Gift and giftee.
- Show the voucher when ordering, enter the four-digit shop code given by staff and show the redeemed screen.
- Extra toppings, drinks, special-branch menus and price differences require an additional payment.
- The voucher is not valid at Ichiran Namba Midosuji or overseas branches.
When is the late-night surcharge?
The official Dazaifu shop page, for example, states that a late-night charge applies after 22:00 and gives the period as 22:00–06:00. A branch that closes earlier will not necessarily serve throughout that period. Prices and menus changed at some shops from July 2026, so do not calculate from an old ramen price.

Ichiran official eGift instructions
What eGift does not cover
An eGift covers the product printed on the voucher, not every possible order. Extra noodles, toppings, drinks or a special ramen that costs more may require payment at the restaurant. The official instructions describe paying a difference in cash where needed.
Using it at Fukuoka branches
Some Fukuoka branches operate 24 hours, while Tenjin, Hakata and Canal City branches have individual schedules and last-order times. Special concepts such as Tenjin Nishidori’s kamadare tonkotsu or a limited branch menu may create a price difference.
Open the voucher before entering, especially in underground or large commercial buildings where mobile reception can be inconsistent. Do not tap “used” until staff gives you the shop code.
Buying through Yahoo! Shopping
giftee vouchers may also be sold on Yahoo! Shopping. Price, inventory and PayPay point offers change with account and campaign conditions. Confirm the face value, expiry and delivery method on the purchase screen rather than assuming a promotional return.
Common questions
Does eGift remove every late-night charge?
No. It redeems the listed product. Any branch price difference or extra order remains payable.
Can I use it outside Japan?
No. Official guidance excludes overseas Ichiran branches, as well as Namba Midosuji in Japan.
Should I buy it immediately before eating?
Allow time for the voucher URL or email to arrive and make sure the screen opens before joining the queue.
