📦 What You Need to Know About Duties & Taxes

• We ship on DAP (Delivered At Place) terms. This means that you, the buyer, are responsible for paying any applicable import duties, taxes, or customs fees required by your country.
• To comply with customs laws, we always declare the full value of your order. We can't mark items as lower value to reduce import duties when shipping.
• In most cases where customs duties apply, your local customs office or DHL Express will contact you directly to complete payment before your order is delivered.

📄 Import Duties & Taxes Guide

• For import purposes, our Kintsugi pieces are generally classified as ceramic tableware (HS code: 6912.00).
• Items containing lacquered wood may be classified as lacquerware, which may result in different import duty rates.
• For a detailed overview of estimated import duties and taxes by country, please refer to our Import Duties & Taxes Guide (PDF).

🇺🇸 Special Note for U.S. Customers

• Orders under $800 USD are generally exempt from import duties and taxes.
  *However, this exemption is subject to change based on U.S. Customs policy and trade agreements. We encourage you to confirm current regulations before placing an order.

❗ What Happens If Import Duties Are Not Paid?

Failure to complete customs clearance or pay the required fees may result in:
