Shipping Methods

We offer multiple delivery options depending on the size, urgency, and destination of your order:

• Air Freight – a fast and efficient solution for urgent and high-priority shipments.

• Courier Services – for small orders, we use trusted international carriers such as USPS, DHL, UPS, and FedEx.

Delivery Coverage

We ship worldwide, with all shipments originating from the United States and delivered to international destinations.

Shipping Cost

Shipping costs are not fixed and depend on multiple factors, including, but not limited to:

• Shipment dimensions and weight
• Destination country
• Selected shipping method (air, sea, or courier)
• Packaging and handling requirements
• Current carrier rates, surcharges, and market conditions

For this reason, each shipment is calculated individually to determine the most efficient and commercially reasonable logistics solution.

Shipping Cost Calculation

• For standard orders, shipping cost is calculated during the checkout process.
• For clients placing systematic, recurring, or bulk orders, shipping cost may be calculated individually before dispatch and confirmed separately prior to shipment.

The buyer acts as the importer of record in the destination country and assumes full responsibility for:

• Import customs clearance
• Compliance with all applicable local laws, rules, and regulations
• Obtaining and providing any import permits, licenses, certificates, or approvals
• Ensuring that the ordered goods are permitted for import into the destination country
