Customs, Duties & Taxes
Customs duties, import taxes, and local clearance fees depend on your destination country, order value, product category, and shipping channel. For many small ready-stock orders, customers may not receive a separate customs payment request, or the fee may be low, but this cannot be guaranteed in advance.
1. General Customs Responsibility
Import duties, taxes, customs clearance fees, brokerage fees, VAT/GST, and local charges are determined by the destination country and local customs regulations.
For small ready-stock orders, customs fees may be low or may not be collected depending on the destination country, shipment value, local tax threshold, and carrier clearance process.
Unless a tax-paid shipping channel is confirmed before shipment, the buyer is responsible for any applicable import duties, taxes, customs fees, or local charges required by the destination country.
2. Where Do I Pay Customs Duties?
If customs duties, import taxes, or clearance fees are required, the shipping carrier or local customs authority will usually notify you with payment instructions.
Depending on your country and carrier, you may receive payment instructions by email, SMS, tracking page, phone call, or at delivery.
In many cases, especially for small ready-stock orders, customers may not receive a separate customs payment request. If no payment request is sent by the carrier or customs authority, no extra action is usually required from the customer.
3. Bulk Orders & Shipping Advice
Customs planning is more important for larger wholesale orders. Before payment, please contact us with your product list, quantity, shipping country, and preferred delivery timeline.
Our team can help recommend a suitable and cost-efficient shipping method based on order weight, product mix, destination country, and available logistics options.
For some countries, choosing the right shipping channel can help reduce landed-cost uncertainty and make the clearance process smoother.
4. United States Orders
For U.S. customers, import duties and taxes are determined by U.S. customs and the shipping carrier.
Many small ready-stock orders may not receive a separate duty payment request, depending on shipment value, product category, and the carrier clearance process.
If any customs fee is required, the carrier or customs authority will usually contact you with payment instructions before or during delivery.
For larger wholesale orders, please contact us before payment so our team can recommend a suitable shipping method.
5. Tax-Paid Channels
For selected countries or regions, we may be able to offer tax-paid shipping channels. Availability depends on the destination country, shipment value, product category, order weight, and logistics provider.
If a tax-paid channel is available for your order, our team will confirm this option with you before shipment.
Tax-paid channels are not available for every country or every order. Please contact us before payment if you want our team to check available options.
How to confirm: Send us your product list, order value, quantity, and destination country. Our team will check whether a tax-paid or more suitable logistics option is available.

6. Other Countries & Regions
For other countries, customs fees depend on local import rules, local tax thresholds, shipment value, product category, and the selected shipping channel.
Some small orders may have low customs fees or may not be charged if the shipment falls within local clearance thresholds or if no payment request is issued by the carrier.
For larger wholesale orders, please contact us before payment. We will help review your order details and recommend a suitable shipping solution where available.
7. Mexico Customers
