Shipping Policy

A legal disclaimer

The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and high-level explanations and information on how to write your own document of a Shipping Policy. You should not rely on this article as legal advice or as recommendations regarding what you should actually do, because we cannot know in advance what are the specific shipping policies that you wish to establish between your business and your customers. We recommend that you seek legal advice to help you understand and to assist you in the creation of your own Shipping Policy.

Import Duties and Taxes:

For international orders, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country. Please note that your order may be subject to import duties, taxes, and customs clearance fees levied by the destination country once a shipment reaches your borders. All such additional charges for customs clearance are the sole responsibility of the customer. Teaport World Limited has no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be.

What to include in the Shipping Policy

Generally speaking, a Shipping Policy often addresses these types of issues: the timeframe for processing orders; the shipping costs; different domestic and international shipping solutions; potential service interruptions; and much, much more.
