🛃 Import Charges & Duties

  • All international orders ship DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid).

  • Import taxes/duties depend on your local customs regulations and are payable by the recipient.

  • Couriers will send you a secure payment link before delivery.

  • For some countries, duties may be collected on delivery (ICOD).

  • If customs duties, taxes, or clearance fees remain unpaid, the shipment may be subject to strict enforcement actions by customs authorities or the courier service (such as FedEx). In many cases, this can include dismantling the goods for inspection, destruction, or lawful disposal, without any compensation to the customer. Alternatively, the shipment may be returned to the sender; however, such returns often incur high charges for international shipping, return handling, storage, and any additional processing fees. These costs can significantly exceed the original delivery charges and will remain the full responsibility of the customer.

    All necessary fees, including but not limited to customs duties, import taxes, clearance charges, storage costs, and any administrative or handling fees imposed by the carrier or customs, must be paid in full by the customer. Failure to do so may result in the shipment being permanently withheld, destroyed, or returned at the customer’s expense.

    To avoid unnecessary delays, extra charges, or loss of goods, customers are strongly advised to monitor their shipment status closely and ensure prompt payment of all applicable import-related fees. The seller or shipper cannot be held responsible for any loss, damage, or costs resulting from unpaid customs or clearance fees.
