4) Shipping Services & Costs
- DDP availability: For eligible retail orders, we offer DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) in the following destinations, subject to product and address eligibility: US, UK, DE, JP, AU, AE, IN, SA, KW, BR, CA. Availability may vary by product/SKU and service area.
- Non-DDP shipments: When DDP is unavailable, orders are shipped DAP (Delivered at Place). The receiver is responsible for import clearance and any taxes/duties/brokerage fees.
- Rates at checkout: Carrier-calculated rates are shown at checkout after you enter your destination address. Express upgrades (e.g., DHL/UPS/FedEx) are billed at real-time carrier tariffs; quotes available on request.
5) Duties & Taxes
- DDP destinations: Import VAT, customs brokerage and duties are included in your checkout total.
- DAP destinations: The receiver pays local import VAT/duties and handles customs clearance in accordance with local regulations.
6) Address Accuracy & Undeliverable Parcels
Please enter a complete and accurate shipping address (including any required tax ID or customs ID). Parcels returned due to an incorrect address, refusal to provide required customs ID, or refusal to pay non-DDP duty will be treated under our Return & Exchange Policy.
7) Tracking & Delivery
We email your tracking link immediately after the parcel is manifested. You can also view status under My Account → Orders. If tracking shows no movement for 10 business days, or your parcel remains in transit beyond 30 business days, contact us and we will file a priority trace with the carrier.
8) Lost, Delayed, or Damaged Parcels
If your parcel arrives damaged or is missing items, please contact us within 7 calendar days of delivery with photos/video of the parcel, inner/outer packaging and contents. For suspected loss or prolonged delay, we will coordinate a carrier investigation and keep you informed of the outcome.
9) Shipping Restrictions (PO Boxes, Remote Areas, Dangerous Goods)
- PO Boxes/APO/FPO: Some services cannot deliver to PO Boxes or military addresses; if unavailable, we will contact you to arrange an alternative address or service.
- Remote area surcharge: Carriers may apply a remote-area surcharge. When applicable, we will notify you before dispatch or collect the surcharge at checkout.
- Batteries/regulated items: Certain products (e.g., lithium batteries or radio equipment) may require special packing and documentation. We will follow carrier/IATA rules; this can affect service availability and transit times.
10) Signature on Delivery
A signature may be required by the carrier depending on service level, parcel value, or destination. If you need a mandatory signature service, please contact us before shipment; additional carrier fees may apply.
11) Split Shipments & Partial Fulfillment
We may ship items separately to improve delivery speed or due to stock availability, compliance, or carrier constraints. You will receive tracking for each parcel.
12) Return Address (RMA Parcels Only)
For security and logistics control, the designated service center address will be provided in your RMA approval email. Do not ship returns before receiving the RMA email; parcels sent to unauthorized addresses may be refused.
13) Customer Responsibilities under DAP
For DAP shipments, the receiver is responsible for import permits (if required), customs clearance, and local taxes/duties. Failure to complete clearance or pay applicable fees may result in return-to-sender or abandonment as per carrier/local rules; associated costs may be deducted from your refund in accordance with our Return & Exchange Policy.
