If you would like a quote before you proceed to checkout, please contact us at info@bakabozza.com and let us know which items you are interested in, and which country it will be shipping to. Delivery times are estimates only and are not guaranteed. 'Business days' means weekdays only and does not include Saturdays, Sunday, or holidays. Customs may cause additional delays beyond these estimates.
Tracking Your Order
To provide a more reliable service to our international customers, we have discontinued the use of shipping methods that do not offer tracking. Since the United States Postal Service (USPS) does not always provide online tracking for packages, we are now only offering shipping via USPS to countries that they do provide tracking for on their First-Class packages: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Latvia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, and Switzerland. For countries not listed above, we only ship via DHL Express or UPS. Once your order is shipped, you will receive an automated Shipping Confirmation email from us that will include your tracking number, as well as a link to where you can track your package.
Customs, Duties & Taxes
The customer is responsible for knowing the rules, regulations, policies, etc. of the destination country. This includes knowing what product can be lawfully imported to the country of destination. International shipments may be subject to import taxes, duties, and fees levied by the destination country. The customer/ recipient of an international shipment may be subject to such import taxes, custom duties, and fees which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be paid by the recipient; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they might be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country; you should contact your local customs office for further information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates. Sometimes packages may even be held in customs for reasons unknown to us. The tracking information for your package should show if your package is stuck in customs. If tracking shows your package has been held in customs for several days or more, please contact your local customs office. It is the customer/ recipient's responsibility to contact customs and/or pick up the package from the customs office if there is a customs issue.
ORDERS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED DUE TO CUSTOMS DELAYS, DUE TO AN ITEM BEING HELD IN CUSTOMS, OR BECAUSE THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT WANT TO PICK UP OR PAY CUSTOMS FEES.
Returns & Refunds
We regret to inform our international customers that due to the extended time in transit and high cost of shipping, currently we are not able to offer returns on international orders.
Refunds are offered on a case-by-case basis and are reserved for rare situations (for example if a package is lost or returned to the sender). If a package is returned to us due to an inadequate shipping address (or other reason that is not due to our fault), cost of product only will be refunded (shipping fees are non-refundable). It is the customer's responsibility to provide an accurate shipping address during checkout. Please contact us at info@bakabozza.com if you have any questions regarding your order.
Sending Gifts Abroad
Due to the intricacies involved in shipping international packages, including customs clearance, it is NEVER a good idea to send a surprise gift to someone living outside the United States. If you wish to order from us and have it sent as a gift to someone living abroad, please make sure of the following:
- Recipients should be aware that a package is being sent to them and should be aware of the contents.
- Recipient should be willing to pay for any customs fees that are due; this includes willingness to contact the local customs office to follow up if necessary.
- Ensure that the address of the recipient is correct and has been confirmed by the recipient.
- Either the buyer or the recipient should ensure that the item(s) being purchased are allowed to be imported into the destination country.
In the end, it is the customer's responsibility that all the above are followed. Refunds are not offered for circumstances in which the recipient refuses the package or refuses to pay customs fees or follow up with customs to receive their package.
