7.- INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:

International delivery times.

In general, packages arrive very quickly. In our experience, most packages reach customs in about 15 business days. Once your package has reached your government customs agency, it must undergo clearance inspections. We do our best to expedite this process by providing all required documentation, but we are unable to determine exactly how long your order will take through customs, most of the time packages are cleared within 8-10 business days for completion direct delivery or with the business partner if applicable. Unfortunately, there is nothing else we can do in this part of the process.

When you place an order, the details are sent to our warehouses for shipment. As soon as the shipping label has been generated, you will receive an email with the tracking details. You can also view order tracking details in the Order Status section of our site.

Please note that it may take 3-8 business days (Monday through Friday) for the initial follow-up updates to appear.

This is because your order must go through a major shipping center before the online tracking system is updated. Almost all international packages we ship will go through an international sorting center before being shipped to the destination country. This is no cause for alarm if you see this information, your package will be leaving very soon, and the tracking will be updated again when it has reached your country's customs agency for clearance inspections.

Duties and taxes may be paid upon receipt and are the responsibility of the customer. Please note: the arrival times listed reflect the typical experience and may differ depending on border clearance.

You are responsible for the taxes and laws imposed by your country. You are responsible for knowing the import regulations for your country. The inability to collect the package from the foreign postal administration is the direct responsibility of the buyer. If the package is returned by the buyer, the buyer will be responsible for the shipping costs to and from the destination.

  • Shipments with problems:

In certain scenarios, orders may not be delivered due to common handling problems.

If the package indicates that it is returned to the sender, your order will be fully refunded if your address is correct.

If there is a discrepancy with your address, all shipping costs and restocking fees will apply to the refund.

Make sure to provide your address correctly accordingly.
