International Shipping & Customs

📦 Important Information About Customs Fees and Import Duties

Customs Fees and Import Duties:
International shipments may be subject to customs fees, import duties, value-added tax (VAT), and other taxes imposed by your country's customs authorities. These charges are determined by your local government based on the declared value of your order and product classification.

Customer Responsibility:
The recipient is responsible for paying any customs fees, import duties, or taxes that may apply to their order. These charges are separate from your order total, shipping costs, and any applicable sales tax collected at checkout. Shoppers Castle has no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.

When Charges Apply:
Customs fees typically apply when packages cross international borders. The amount varies by country and depends on:

  • Declared value of goods
  • Product type and classification
  • Your country's import regulations and thresholds
  • Trade agreements between countries

Payment Process:
Customs fees are usually collected by the shipping carrier upon delivery or by your local customs office before release of the package. You may be contacted directly by the carrier or customs office for payment. Failure to pay these fees may result in your package being returned to sender or held indefinitely.

Delivery Delays:
Customs processing may cause delays beyond our estimated delivery times. International shipments must clear customs inspection, which can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks depending on your country's procedures and current processing volumes. We recommend:

  • Tracking your shipment regularly
  • Responding promptly to any customs notifications
  • Contacting your local customs office if your package appears delayed

Refused or Unclaimed Packages:
If you refuse delivery or fail to pay required customs fees, the package will be returned to us. Return shipping costs and any customs fees incurred will be deducted from your refund. Original shipping charges are non-refundable.

Questions About Customs:
For specific information about customs fees, import regulations, and duty rates in your country, please contact your local customs office or visit your country's customs website. We are unable to provide country-specific customs advice.

Shipping Restrictions

We currently ship to most countries worldwide. However, we cannot ship to:

  • P.O. boxes for certain carriers
  • Countries under international trade restrictions
  • Military APO/FPO addresses (please contact us for special arrangements)

Lost or Damaged Packages

Lost Packages:
If your tracking shows your package as delivered but you haven't received it, please:

  1. Check with neighbors or building management
  2. Verify the delivery address on your order confirmation
  3. Wait 24-48 hours (sometimes carriers mark packages as delivered early)
  4. Contact us within 7 days of the delivery date for assistance

Damaged Packages:
If your package arrives damaged, please:

  1. Take photos of the damaged packaging and items
  2. Contact us within 48 hours of delivery
  3. Keep all packaging materials for carrier inspection if needed

We will work with you to resolve the issue through replacement or refund.

Address Changes

Please ensure your shipping address is correct before completing your order. Once an order is processed and shipped, we cannot change the delivery address. If you need to update your address:

  • Before shipping: Contact us immediately and we'll do our best to update it
  • After shipping: Contact the carrier directly using your tracking number to request address changes (additional fees may apply)

Holiday Shipping

During peak holiday seasons (Black Friday, Christmas, Valentine's Day, etc.), please allow additional processing and shipping time due to high order volumes. We recommend ordering early to ensure timely delivery for special occasions.
