Will I Pay Customs or Import Fees?

Orders shipped to the U.S. may be subject to import duties, taxes, or tariffs depending on the order value.

• Orders under $800 USD
  Usually duty-free under U.S. “de minimis” rules.

• Orders over $800 USD
  May be subject to:

  • Import duties

  • Customs processing fees

  • Applicable taxes

These charges are determined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and are not included in our product or shipping prices.

📑 Who Pays These Fees?

All customs duties and import taxes are the responsibility of the buyer.

If fees apply, they are typically collected by:

• FedEx

• Or U.S. customs before delivery

🚚 Shipping Carriers & Customs Handling

We work with trusted international couriers who help facilitate customs clearance. However, delays can occasionally occur due to:
