How long does it take to get through customs at Tokyo airport?

It depends on which airport you use, when you get there, whether you have checked bags, and how many other international flights arrive at or around the same time yours does. I would expect 30–45 minutes, most of which is spent walking to immigration/customs from your airplane and standing in line.
