CUSTOMS IMPORT DUTY & TAXES (INTERNATIONAL ORDERS)

International orders may be subject to customs duties, taxes, and import fees upon arrival in the destination country. These charges are determined by local customs authorities and are the responsibility of the customer.

Please note, we do not collect or control these charges and cannot predict if or when they may apply.

If duties and taxes are not paid, or a shipment is unclaimed, the courier may attempt redelivery. If unsuccessful, the parcel may be abandoned or disposed of in the destination country. In such cases, we are unable to offer compensation or refunds.

If a parcel is returned to us, any return shipping fees incurred will be deducted from the customer’s refund.

If you have any further questions regarding international shipping, please be sure to get in touch via the contact page.
