International customers may be subjected and are responsible to pay duties

most countries, there is an administrative fee that is collected from the
recipient to cover the costs of clearing the item through customs and
collecting duties and taxes. We are unable to tell you the exact duties,
taxes, or administrative fee you may be required to pay.
For more information about duties/ custom fees please visit USPS by

If your order is returned to us, because you did not pay the duties, taxes,
or administrative fee imposed by your country, we will not reship your order
until you pay the shipping fee needed to reship your order. No refunds will be
issue for returned International packages.
