- Destination and delivery speed
- Insurance requirements for high-value items
- Any special handling needed
Cost-Effective Solutions: We work to find the most economical shipping option that meets your needs and timeframe.
Order Value Considerations: Shipping costs may be reduced or waived for higher-value orders at our discretion.
Customs and Import Duties
Customer Responsibility: You are responsible for:
- All customs duties, taxes, and import fees in your country
- Providing accurate customs information if requested
- Any additional charges imposed by local authorities
Customs Documentation: We'll complete all required export documentation and declare accurate product values for customs purposes.
Delays: Customs processing times vary by country and are beyond our control. Some shipments may be subject to inspection or additional documentation requirements.
Insurance and Liability
Standard Coverage: All shipments include basic carrier insurance.
High-Value Orders: Orders over £500 may require additional insurance, which will be included in your shipping quote.
