International Shipping Guide

• Depending on what you purchase, your country’s customs authority may determine that you owe a tax. Nearly every shipment that crosses an international border is subject to a customs and duties tax. Each country’s assessment is done differently.
• Customs officials will use the declared value of an item to determine duties and taxes. We will ensure that we provide an accurate value along with a packaging slip and invoice if you have one.
• Duties and taxes are charged to you separately from our fees.

The following items are not acceptable by most international carriers. Other restrictions may apply depending on your shipment destination. Regulatory clearances in addition to Customs clearance may be required for certain commodities, which may extend the transit time.

1. 1. Alcoholic beverages (e.g., beer, wine, spirits).
   2. Bullion.
   3. Human corpses, human organs or body parts, human and animal embryos, or cremated or disinterred human remains.
   4. Explosives and incendiary devices. Firearms, weaponry, and their parts or ammunition.
   5. Perishable foodstuffs and foods/beverages requiring refrigeration or other environmental control.
   6. Live animals, eggs, larva, live insects, live spiders.
