Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about shipping, payment, orders, and returns.
What shipping methods are available?
We choose the best shipping method for your order based on your location. Our priority is to use logistics solutions that handle customs and taxes whenever possible, so you can enjoy a hassle-free, door-to-door delivery.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We primarily serve customers in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, where logistics and customs processes are stable and well-established.
- Orders over $60 qualify for free shipping.
- Most deliveries to these regions arrive without additional import taxes.
For other destinations, a flat shipping fee of $12 applies, and any applicable import duties determined by local customs may be collected upon delivery.
Do product prices include customs duties and taxes?
No, product prices on our website do not include customs duties or import taxes.
Where possible, we ship using logistics channels that include taxes, so most customers in Europe and North America can receive tax-included packages. However, we cannot guarantee this for every location.
If a package is refused because of customs duties, any resulting loss (including return shipping costs, customs fees, etc.) will be borne by the customer, and we will not issue a refund.
How long will it take to get my package?
Here are our estimated delivery times (business days):
- Europe & the Americas: 12–20 days (most orders arrive in 12–15 days).
- Southeast Asia & the Middle East: 6–15 days.
- Other regions: 10–20 days, depending on customs clearance.
These are estimates only. Final delivery time depends on the shipping carrier and local customs processing.
What payment methods do you accept?
We currently accept:
- PayPal
- All major credit and debit cards processed through the PayPal payment gateway
Is it safe to buy on your site?
