Customs
When
purchasing from YOYBUY, we guarantee clearance at Chinese Customs, and will
bear full responsibility if there are any problems with the Chinese Customs.
However, you
are responsible for assuring that the product can be lawfully imported to the
destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject
to the destination country's Customs policies once the shipment arrives at the
recipient's country. If there are tariff requirements or confiscated goods in
your country, we are not responsible for damage/loss. The recipient is the
importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the
destination country.
Thus,
additional costs such as import duties and taxes, determined by the
classification of a good, may be levied on the purchased products according to
each country's Customs policies. Such additional fees are not included in the
item price or shipping cost since we have no control over these additional
charges, and cannot predict what they may be.
These charges
are the buyer's responsibility, so please contact your local Customs office to
determine what the additional costs will be prior to buying.
Purchases
subject to Customs clearance procedures will cause delays beyond our original
delivery estimates.
Because only
0.3% of YOYBUY delivered parcels have ever been taxed, your parcels are almost
always guaranteed to pass through Customs with no problems. However, on the off
chance that your shipment is withheld by Customs, you will need to pay the
additional charges to receive your parcel.
Advice:
YOYBUY
suggests its customers to take the initiative to find out their local Customs'
policies before purchasing. In countries with high rate of Customs clearance,
additional fees are unlikely. However, in countries with low rate of Customs
clearance such as Argentina, customers may be required to pay tariffs. In
Japan, Customs are very strict; do not try to deliver counterfeit items to
Japan. 80% of parcels will be confiscated by Japan Customs. In Italy, Customs pay
special attention to counterfeit shoes; Italian Customs are the strictest among
the European countries.
Having more
than 5 of the same items in one purchase will also draw the Customs' attention.
If necessary, try separating the items into different parcels.
In some
countries, parcels that weigh over 10KG will be considered commercial; Customs
will block these parcels and ask you to pay duties. Be sure to monitor the
weight of your parcel!
