Deliveries within Australia ARE NOT subject to import taxes/duties as we ship all orders from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Deliveries Outside Australia 
In most cases customs fees or import duties are not applied, however it is the responsibility of the customer to be aware of any additional customs restrictions, clearance fees, import duties and rejected delivery costs which may apply to the products you are purchasing.

Taxes/Import Duties may be imposed once a shipment reaches your country thus we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. We will not reimburse any chargers which may be imposed.

When goods are not sent domestically or within a single customs union, you are liable to pay any inbound duties and taxes which your local Customs authority deems appropriate.

Duties and taxes are most typically not included in the price of the goods you purchase online. The delivery courier / postal service may request payment of taxes in order to pay the customs authority on your behalf.

You may refuse to pay any taxes whch may be imposed and the parcel will be redirected back to us as the sender.

We always declare correct order values. We clearly show the cost of goods and the cost of shipping for easy and accurate processing through customs.

If you have any queries regarding customs information please contact your local office.
