    International deliveries

    When purchasing from our website for delivery outside of the United Kingdom you are effectively becoming an importer and charges may apply to goods bought shopping online from the UK. You will likely have to pay customs duty and taxes when they enter the recipient country and the goods may be held by the Customs Authority at entry, pending the payment of any duties and tax incurred.

    We use DHL Express as our preferred courier for all international deliveries.

The customer is also responsible for all local taxes, duties & customs clearance fee's incurred during shipping on international orders.

    If you have any questions about our international delivery service, or, if you are not being shown any delivery options at checkout to your chosen country, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
