What if my order is stuck in customs?Updated 7 months ago

Thankfully, orders being delayed by customs are quite rare. In most cases, customs clearance takes only a day or two. However, on the rare occasion that it takes longer, here’s what you need to know and what you can do.




What to Expect with Customs Clearance

  • Most packages clear customs quickly, typically within 1-2 working days.
  • If your package remains in customs for more than 5 working days, it may require additional action.




What Should You Do?

  1. Check Your Emails:

    • Customs or the courier may contact you directly to request additional information or payment of duties and taxes.
    • Ensure you respond promptly to avoid further delays.
  2. Monitor Your Tracking Information:

    • Your tracking link may provide updates about the customs process or the reason for the delay.
  3. Contact Our Support Team:

    • If the customs process exceeds 5 working days, please reach out to us.
    • Provide your order number and any relevant details, and we’ll work with the courier to investigate the issue and get your package moving again.
