In certain regions, local taxes and import duties may be applicable, and it is the customer's duty to settle these charges. For further details, kindly refer to your country's customs office. It's important to note that import fees are the sole responsibility of the customer and are not included in the shipping cost. The precise amount of taxes can vary based on the nature, value, and weight of the purchased items. Different countries may have distinct tax policies for specific products, so it's advisable to verify this with your local customs authority. Generally, shipping companies collect import duties, taxes, or any other customs-related charges upon delivery. It's crucial to understand that any delays caused by your country's customs department are beyond the control of the sellers.
